Listen as you are told the tale of what happened on the evening of November 24, 1901, in Buffalo, New York

Move over "Oppenheimer" and "Barbie." The latest film from writer, director and producer Martin Scorsese — "Killers of the Flower Moon" — might be the best movie of 2023 and could run away with multiple Oscars when awards season approaches. Co-host Bruce Miller, who got an early screening of the film that opens October 20 after its brief run at Cannes earlier this year, shares his impressions of the film and where it stacks up with other Scorsese classics that featured Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio. The two actors have long been favorites of the director, but had never appeared in one of his films together until now. Co-host Terry Lipshetz, who has not yet seen the film, shares his thoughts on past Scorsese films such as "Goodfellas," "The Departed" and others, and introduces clips featuring Scorsese, De Niro, DiCaprio, Lily Gladstone, Jesse Plemons and Chief Geoffrey Standing Bear of the Osage Nation. Where to watch and more coverage "Killers of the Flower Moon" in theaters Osage Reign of Terror from Late Edition: Crime Beat Chronicles (Podcast) More coverage of the movie and the story that inspired the film from the Tulsa World Contact us! We want to hear from you! Email questions to podcasts@lee.net and we'll answer your question on a future episode! About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is now the editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, a senior producer for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. Episode transcript Note: The following transcript was created by Headliner and may contain misspellings and other inaccuracies as it was generated automatically:  Martin Scorsese talks about his new film Killers of the Flower Moon Martin Scorsese: Well, I think the story itself has elements of stuff that you would expect to see in my movies. This approach, however, is from another angle, and I think it's from a more personal, side, which is the story of, the husband and wife, Ernest and Molly, and more so through Molly, I think, and how it affects her. We don't shy away from showing anything, but it has different resonance because of, her, really. Terry Lipshetz: Welcome, everyone, to another episode of streamed and screened and entertainment podcast about movies and TV from Lee Enterprises. That clip you just heard was from Martin Scorsese, writer, director, and producer of Killers of the Flower Moon during the Mexico City premiere of the film. Courtesy EPKTV. Bruce Miller: This is a special film that you will want to see Terry Lipshetz: I'm Terry Lipschetz, a senior producer at Lee and co host of the program with Bruce Miller, editor of the Sioux City Journal and a longtime entertainment reporter. He is also lucky enough and is the only person I know to have seen Martin Scorsese's new film, Killers of the Flower Moon. Bruce, I'm yours here. I don't even know what else to say because you're special. You've seen it, I haven't. Bruce Miller: What can you say about a film like this? Just another thing that he put out. Just another film. It's just no, it is something. This is a special film that you will want to see. But I'm going to warn you before we even get into the rest of it, and that's that it's long. People complain, and, who complains more about a long film than I do? It really will be one that if you could break it up and watch it in parts, you'd probably enjoy it more. But I did need to have a bathroom break in the middle of it, so I'm admitting to that freely. I know that I shouldn't have had a beverage before I went in, but, yeah, it is everything you've heard about, everything you've thought about, everything you've wanted and more. If this isn't Martin Scorsese's big valedictory, I don't know what is, because there's a lot to unpack with the film, and he brings in people that truthfully. I did not know some of these actors were in the film. And so the last quarter of the film, they start popping up and you go, oh, my God. They all wanted to be in one of his films before he quits making films. And you see big names and they just are playing little throwaway roles, which I found was very fascinating to see. And it isn't like you think, okay, the movie, I kind of know where it's ending. It's ending, right? No, it gets another kind of breath and then it goes through another process. And you go, yeah, wow, that was something. And then the ending of the whole thing is a big surprise. Terry Lipshetz: So you're not going to give that away? Bruce Miller: No, I'm not going to give that away. Terry Lipshetz: Don't spoil it. Bruce Miller: You got to see that one. But yeah, I was pleasantly surprised. And I'm glad I didn't time the bathroom break at the end because I then would have missed this part. But it was like, okay, I like that. That's a nice way of putting a button on. Terry Lipshetz: Know you're talking about the length. I do see that it is three minutes shorter than his last film, The Irishman. So it is quicker. A little faster, right. But that was a long one, too. Bruce Miller: The Irishman, you could pause because it was on Netflix, right. Terry Lipshetz: This is an Apple TV production. But it's not on Apple TV. Bruce Miller: No, it's going to be theaters first, and then it will go to Apple TV. But don't expect, like, it's opening this week, and then next week you're going to see it on Apple. It's not they will have this kind of victory lap that will last, I'm sure, at least through the end of October, if not into November. And it warrants it. When you see this, it's one of the best things Leonardo DiCaprio has done. And he's done a lot of Scorsese films. It's, a different take on Robert De Niro. In fact, when I first saw him, I didn't realize it was Robert De Niro and heard his voice. He was channeling somebody other than what we've seen in the past. And what's fascinating I found about the film is that it touches on a lot of very familiar movies. There's a little Godfather in this. There's a little giant in this. Think about epic films that you've seen, and there's a little bit of that in there. But it also is its own story. So I think he's paying homage to a lot of his predecessors, but he's also creating a path for himself. There was even a little Wes Anderson in there that I, was surprised at. Terry Lipshetz: That's interesting. Bruce Miller: I don't know if that gives you anything more to go on, but there are moments with De Niro and DiCaprio that you go, this could be The Godfather. This could really be from The Godfather. It has that kind of momentum going that I really loved. Lily Gladstone plays love interest of Leonardo DiCaprio's character Bruce Miller: And then we haven't even mentioned Lily Gladstone. Lily Gladstone plays a member of the Osage Nation who is a love interest of Leonardo DiCaprio's character. And you can see where the two guys are going to be kind of heightened actory kind of characters. And she pulls back and is very natural, and they match her. And it's fascinating how this works out. And a lot of the Native American actors who I don't know if they've had long careers, are fascinating to watch. He has done something here that I think you don't see in run of the mill movies. It is a real surprise, one right after another. Terry Lipshetz: It's interesting that you bring up how this feels like one of his earlier films, scorsese's earlier films, some of the ones tied to kind of organized, crime and mafia. I have a clip from the movie and it's a scene where De Niro and DiCaprio are together and they're kind of having an argument. It comes after it sounds like a hit and there's a shooting. But when I watched this clip now, again, I haven't seen the movie. So I've only been able to see trailers and short clips. But this one felt like it had that feeling of, like, goodfellas when they're kind of yelling at each other or even like The Departed. It kind of had that kind of feeling to it. But it brings the two actors together. Robert de Niro plays Leonardo DiCaprio's uncle in the film Bruce Miller: Can I give you a little setup for the scene? Terry Lipshetz: Sure. Bruce Miller: Robert de Niro plays Leonardo DiCaprio's. Uncle Leo has been in the war, but he comes back. He doesn't really know what to do with himself. He doesn't have a career. The uncle says, Come to this area because there's a lot of opportunity. The Osage nation hit oil. They struck oil. And as a result, people were really, really rich. The Native Americans had the latest in cars. They had butlers and chauffeurs and maids and huge homes. They were living the life that everybody, I think, would love to live. And there were a group of people who were benefiting from them being around. De Niro's character is considered a, respected white man in their territory. And he has relationships with most of the people. So they trust him and they believe in what he says to them. And he brings in this nephew. And the nephew is kind of a deadbeat, if you ask me. I saw him as a deadbeat. And he's just looking for a way to get his piece of this pie. And so then De Niro has spelled out a number of things he needs to do and it's about how do you behave and what do you do in this area. And we've got to watch so that if we do something that maybe isn't above board that you're not getting caught. So here's the scene. FILM CLIP It's supposed to be a suicide, you dumbbell. You didn't tell him to leave the gun. I don't know why I told him. To leave the gun. I told him to leave the gun just like you told. I don't know why he didn't. I don't know why I told him. Just like you told him. You told him to do it in. The front of the head. And why did he do it in the back of the head? It's so simple. The front is the front. The back is the back, mate. He has to make it look like he done himself. It just looks like murder. It's not supposed to be that way, you hear? I told him the front of the head. I said the front of the head. Just like this. Just like you told me. I promise you. I promise you. I swear on my children. I swear on my children. Kane and don't swear on your children makes you look foolish. I ain't foolish, because I'm the guy. Terry Lipshetz: And that was a pretty powerful clip right there. Leonardo DiCaprio plays Ernest Burkhart in the film Terry Lipshetz: And I do have one other clip because we're talking about some of the characters, and maybe you can help set this up as well. But in this scene, Leonardo DiCaprio, who plays Ernest Burkhart, he is driving Lily Gladstone, who plays Molly Burkhart, who's eventually becomes his wife. His wife, right. But this is an early scene where he is driving her. Can you talk a little bit about that? Bruce Miller: He needs a job, and so he becomes a driver. He was like an Uber driver, for lack of a better term. And she is one of his steady customers, and he realizes there could be a relationship there because she's beautiful. She doesn't suffer fools. what I love about her is she stands her own with all the people, and yet it isn't like she needs a big showy scene to do it. She can do it with a look, and that's what's so cool about her performance. But I think this is early on in their relationship, and they are kind of feeling each other out in terms of, could this possibly be a match for me? They told me you was going with Matt M. Williams for a time. FILM CLIP Lily Gladstone: You talk too much. Leonardo DiCaprio: I don't talk too much thinking, well, I got to beat in this horse race. That's all. Lily Gladstone: I didn't realize it was a race. I don't care for watching horses. Leonardo DiCaprio: Well, I'm a different kind of horse. Lily Gladstone: Hong Kashi. Show me kasikoshi. Leonardo DiCaprio: What was that? Lily Gladstone: Show me kasi. That's how you are. Leonardo DiCaprio: I don't know what you said, but it must have been Indian for Handsome Devil. Terry Lipshetz: That sounds like a pretty good clip right there, too. And it's getting me excited. It seems like they had really good chemistry on screen. Chemistry. Did you get that feeling? Bruce Miller: Yeah. And, the thing I loved is that it did not seem like it was the same old, same old, because when you've done a lot of movies with the same director, it can be like, okay, we're using you because you can bring us this. And I thought they were both trying new kinds of characters. In fact, Leo's character reminded me more of one of the characters he played in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, more than anything. And he always talks about being thick. That's a line that kind of, resonates throughout the film. But he says, I'm not thick. I'm not thick. And he doesn't want people to think he's dumb, that he knows what he's doing, and he's smart. But really, when you get down to it, he probably is thick. That some of these moves he makes makes him seem like, yeah, maybe we need to guide you along a little bit more. This is the first time Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro have worked together in a Martin Scorsese film Terry Lipshetz: We talked a little bit at the top of this show, know Scorsese reuniting with DiCaprio with de Niro. So this is actually, the 6th film that DiCaprio has done with Scorsese. This is the 10th that De Niro has done with Scorsese. Now the interesting thing is Robert, De Niro and Martin Scorsese did a lot of films together earlier, like 70s into the 80s. But then that relationship kind of cooled off a little bit and they went their separate ways. And DiCaprio kind of filled in to what you would consider to be that. Bruce Miller: He became the new Bobby. Terry Lipshetz: He became the new bobby. But this is the first time that the two are working together in the same film. So how is that chemistry between the two of them? Bruce Miller: You know what, i, think that, Robert De Niro has honed in a lot of his performances in recent years. And you can look at some of those bad comedies that he's done. You know that he's phoning in some of those, right? But this one challenges him in such ways that he uses different voices. It isn't the same kind of De Niro voice that you've been looking I when, I wrote a review about it and I thought that he reminded me of James Whitmore. Now this is going back. James Whitmore in the film. Give him hell, Harry. It sounded like that was what he was trying to do. And he was trying to be this kind of likable character, not necessarily somebody who has the upper hand and is going to cut you if you don't do what you say. And I think that's kind of his, you know what I mean, where, he has that. I've loved him in so many films. I, really regret that Raging Bull did not get Best Picture. I think that was one of the big mistakes of all time. Because I don't think The Departed was the best film that Scorsese has made. But we've got this one. And this one could well be the one that brings it all home for him. Terry Lipshetz: I always thought that I love the Departed. It is one of my favorite movies, one of my favorite Martin Scorsese movies. However, to me, it doesn't stand up like a Raging Bull or a Ah Goodfellas or probably half a dozen other films. It always felt like The Departed was kind of like, a makeup. Bruce Miller: You look back at some of those early ones and I think he was part of that group, if you will, that were very big in the they were all kind of jockeying for position. So I think some of those ones that he did early on were masterful something like Taxi Driver, for example. Have you ever seen De Niro better than that? And De Niro has been really good. And Raging Bull, I think, is his best picture ever. But you look at Taxi Driver and you can remember those. Are you looking at me? You're going to come up with the lines right away because it was such an indelible character. And you look at the styles of Martin Scorsese's movies and they are different. Some of those early ones are very kind of know, I do them on $5 kind of movies. And then there are ones that are very elaborate and you think, wow, they spent some bucks on them. This is one of those. They spent some bucks on them. Because the costumes, the sets, all the little details are top drawer. They're just the best. And then you get that like that string of actors. In the end, I kid you not, you are going to, don't look at any list of the actors who are in the film because you'll be looking for them. But there's even Jason Isbell is in there. And you go, wait a minute, he's in this? Come on. And so it's a nice surprise to see that last quarter of the film where they start kind of coming in as various and sundry, lawyers, politicians, representatives, whatever. Terry Lipshetz: I did cheat. Bruce Miller: You did. Terry Lipshetz: I did cheat. Well, I need to know what I'm talking about coming in here. So I did see and it's an interesting look at quite, a few musicians. You mentioned jason isbell. But Jack White is in it. Pete Yorn is in it. Sturgill Simpson. There's a lot of very recent contemporary musicians, a lot of Americana country musicians, but a lot of musicians in this. But there's also a lot of other just very well known actors like Brendan Fraser, John Lithgow, Jesse Clemens. I mean, it's a heavy hitting, right? Bruce Miller: Right. Yeah. It's and Jesse Plemons, you don't see him until, jeez, it's almost over. And then he comes in. And I thought immediately he reminded me of Ben Johnson in Last Picture Show. Now, is that not a reference? I mean, there are little things like that. If you are a fan of film, you can find touchstones here in this movie that relate. I could do like a diagram and then I could put arrows to all these different films. Look at this scene. And this reminds me of this. This reminds me of that. And yet it's uniquely his film. It is not a copy of like, oh, this worked. So I'm going to use that. Not that at all. But like I said, it is fascinating how if you love these kinds of movies, you will really love this one. And I learned stuff like I say, I did not know all this backstory on the Osage Nation and how people were treated. It's unbelievable. And why it took this long to get this story on a screen, or maybe it has and I just missed it is beyond me. This is a film about the Osage Nation and a specific time in history Terry Lipshetz: You mentioned, of course, this is a film about the Osage Nation and time in history. We actually have a clip with Chief, Standing Bear from the Osage Nation, who helped as a consultant on the film. So, let's cut away to that for a moment. Speaker G: Well, I'm principal chief of the Osage Nation, and when David Grand, was writing the book, he was spending a lot of time with us, years. And, after he sold the movie rights, he called and told us that Imperative would take, it from here. And we met with an Imperative, and we were very concerned that someone else is going to tell our story without being our story. But imperative was very careful. They didn't want to over promise. So when they started saying, this is a movie that the Osage will be proud of, and they're going to tell the story through the eyes of Molly, that really got us, in a positive mood. And then Chad Renfro, who I had appointed as our ambassador to this world and the movie, said, Chief Marty Scorsese, he'll be here in the morning. And so he came. First thing he said is, we're going to film here. And then my staff and I, encouraged him and Marianne Bauer and everyone to work with our people on this whole, process. And, it's just been something we worked with for years, every day. And for six months, the filming, was right there in Pahuska, dirt streets, everything. What you see is not computer generated. I've been down watching them film. It's an amazing process. I've never seen anything like it. We've had other movies made in Fahaska, but nothing like this. Bruce Miller: There's a lot of, native languages in this, so you really do feel like you're a part of it. It's like in The Godfather, for example, when they go to Italy and they're speaking Italian and you don't know what in the world's going on, but you know that something's happening. That's a way that the Native American characters are able to keep some of these opportunists at an arm's length, is that they can talk to one another and say, know, I am not so sure about this. Know, so it is a gangster film in a way, but it's not what we traditionally think of as a gangster film. Martin Scorsese has done a lot of films based on true stories recently Terry Lipshetz: Corsace has done a lot of films recently. I mean, he's done this all throughout his career, where he does stories that are either inspired by true stories or they're true stories. Such as the case with the Irishman, the Wolf of Wall Street, the Aviator. Where does this one stand compared to some of those others that are based on true stories in your mind? Bruce Miller: Well, I'm sure they do take liberties because it's based on a novel that was a huge, huge hit. Terry Lipshetz: Right. Bruce Miller: I think it's a great adaptation, if I can say that. But I still think Raging Bull was a more defining kind of biography, if you will. But hey, get ready. Get ready. This is a film you want to see, and this is a year of oppenheimer. Remember, we all hot about Oppenheimer. Well, this is the competition, folks. I think you really have I am going to put them both in at one time and watch them and then just see which one is better. “Killers of the Flower Moon” could win multiple Academy Awards Terry Lipshetz: Yeah, that was my next question for you. When we spoke a few weeks ago, it felt like Oppenheimer at that moment, was the best picture. But now that you've seen this yeah. Bruce Miller: it could win could because up and down the line, there are such excellent examples of what movie making is all know he got in trouble for talking about how those Marvel movies sorry, were not really movies. They were just kind of whatever. And he puts up he shows you what a real movie is. I think we've been so duped in the years of Marvel films that it becomes a formula. To make a movie, you must do this, this, and this. And you need this character and that character. And you get out of it this way. And that's how it goes. And this is creating stuff. This is a new vocabulary, a new way of looking at films. And like I say, that last little bit, you're going to go, I did not realize that that would be a way to end this film. I hope that more than anything, I've gotten you to think about wanting to see it. Terry Lipshetz: Yeah. And I was looking it up because it obviously opens this weekend. But the next thing I looked at is like, well, when is it going to go to Apple TV? is it worth waiting? And it looks like at the earliest, early 2024. So I need to get to the theater. Bruce Miller: Yeah. No, and it needs to be seen on a big screen. It is lavish. I mean, you see those outdoor scenes, and he's not working with a couple, of drones to shoot these scenes. You know, there's a crane involved. And there's a lot they're cattle. My God, the cattle are running all over. And you think, how did they wrangle this? And all those old cars. they said that the Pierce Arrow was one of the most successful cars among the Osage nation, that they all wanted to have a Pierce Arrow. And they got all these cars. And you think, how did they do this? How did they make this so exacting? And then you know that he had people who were guiding him through all of the Native American things. There are ways that they are holding the shawls or using the kind of colors. And I know it all means something. They have done due diligence to every aspect of this. And I think that those who are subliminally part of the story would appreciate what he has done. Because it isn't just I'm, making a movie that's based on a book that's about something that happened. He wants to get it right. And the Native American music that you hear throughout it, too, is a real spectacle to behold. And yeah, there are just parts of it that, you know, that they have done right by the people that they are chronicling. Leonardo DiCaprio: The film took the number of years to make. But we finally got it done Terry Lipshetz: All right, I'm going to cut away quickly now to one, more clip from Martin Scorsese. Let's go to that one really quick. Martin Scorsese: Well, I'm disappointed that we don't have the actors. it's a good time for them to be here and to enjoy, even if it's just a moment of, getting a picture taken together. And everything they went through. The film took the number of years to make. the pandemic took its toll. There's no doubt, took its toll in time and interruptions. But we finally got it done. and, it's been a very special film for me, especially over the years, trying to get it to, be in a shape that was a story I wanted to tell, along with Leo and Lily Gladstone and De Niro and Jesse Plemons and all the Osage with us on this picture. But, it's a special film for me, and I hope I learned something from it. Terry Lipshetz: Even though Martin Scorsese there was talking about how the actors can't promote the film when he was at the London premiere recently. The good news is this is we do have audio from the actors from before the strike began. So we're going to go ahead now and queue up a few clips. Now, in this first one, we have Lily Gladstone and Leonardo DiCaprio. Leonado DiCaprio: We optioned the book seven, eight years ago. And it was a, fascinating piece of forgotten history, but it was told from the perspective of the FBI. And we developed a screenplay soon after that. but there was a dynamic missing there that, we ultimately felt that we weren't getting to the heart of the story. We weren't immersed in the Osage community the way we wanted to be. And there was two short sequences of Ernest and Molly together, which was this insanely, bizarre love story, something that was hard to fathom in a lot of ways, how this woman stuck by someone who was so duplicitous. But it was true. All of it was true. And so from that point on, we said to ourselves, well, what if we take the chance on in getting to the heart of this story and the Osage community and this insane dynamic in Oklahoma at that time and what was going on? What if we made it know Molly and Ernest? And that was another four year journey of rewriting and once again going to Oklahoma to meet with the a new, another chapter of development of getting even further into the truth of that story and trying to be as honest as we possibly could about the atrocities that occurred. But it was really when we made that shift to it being about Ernest and Molly and their love for one another, it opened up a whole new arena of ideas for us and it took on a whole new life of itself. Lily Gladstone: One of the biggest responsibilities I felt about this role was that I'm not Osage Lily Gladstone: One of the biggest responsibilities I felt about this role and, the way that I had to occupy the space of Molly was that I'm not Osage from the community. I have access points being blackfeet and as purse and growing up in the Blackfeet Reservation. we don't have something like the Reign of Terror, but we have our own history with, not being able to manage our own finances, for a time, with a lot of the things that I think a lot of contemporary Native Americans feel and understand. But walking in like, Indian Country is an incredibly diverse place and Osage Country was, foreign to me walking into it. And, Oklahoma has a different history than Montana does, where I grew up. So I knew that because I had to be in this position where I'm, in a way, an access point for the audience to fall in love with Native women and to care about Native women in a really deep way. The way that that happens is I had to fall in love with everybody I was around. I had to fall in love with my sisters and that was effortless. and also with a level within the community. it's not my community, but I had to carry it as if it were, as if they were stories from my family. I think that's kind of the root of empathy and it's one of the reasons that I love being an actor, is you're serving as an access point for, other experiences and you're kind of broadening a cultural understanding of what it means to be human by doing so. yeah, I feel like there's no way I could really, really ever understand or truly embody what it would have meant to be an Osage woman at that time because it's unimaginable the things that this community had to deal with. And it's horrendous how erased it was. And early research with Leah. We were sitting down, going through some of the court documents and the testimonies from this and people were talking about the house blowing up and the documents from this and the court transcripts. They only talked about Bill Smith. The character played by Jason Isbell. There was no mention of Rita. We were sitting there looking at these just court transcripts on this very fragile old paper that we were being very tender with. And then it's like you don't necessarily feel like you're going to be moved by a court document, but I had to stop. I mean, we had this nice system where I was handing you pages and we were turning them over and being careful as we were both reading and everything. And then you were kind of waiting for me to hand you the page and wasn't getting it because I was. Crying over the lack of Rita in this paper. So that kind of took me by surprise that I was moved the way that I was in that moment. But it made it so incredibly clear that me being in this role is a responsibility for this array, is a responsibility for m this community that has been so erased out of their own history, starting with these court documents before any writer gets a hand on it. So, it's vital that this history be explored that way. And I'm so grateful that Marty also, in addition to this being so it's Killers of the Flower Moon, the book is there. It was also the heartbeat of it was so shaped by a book written about this time from an Osage perspective called A Pipe for February by Charles Redcorn. And, ah, I encourage people to read that because copy paste there's elements of that book that are very clearly in the movie in a very certain way. But the tone of that book and the sense of the relationships between the sisters in the community, the photographs that you see, the way that the book invites you into what that perspective is, the way that the community invites you into what their perspective is. Because, if you're there and you're receptive and you're open, they'll share it. they don't push too hard because we're talking about trauma, but people are willing to share, basically. Read a pipe for February. Robert De Niro talks about his role as William King Hale Terry Lipshetz: In this next clip, we have, Robert De Niro speaking about his role as William King Hale. Robert De Niro: Well, on this one, I was aware that Leo and Marty had this project and they were talking about asking me if Marty were asking me to do it. And we were working out Irishman too and so on. So, at one point I said, I told them I'll do it, I'll commit to it. I wasn't quite sure. Hale is what that's all I knew. Then later they told me that they want to change what the book was, doing and make it more about the relationship with Ernest and Hales. So, I said, yeah, that sounds good. And that was it. Then I waited for the script and then we worked on it in pieces. went over it, as I remember. and were going over it during the shooting, sort of titrating it, if you will, because of Leo's, his relationship with Molly, the poisoning and all that and how much he knew or didn't know or half knew and then my involvement and all that. So it was all kind of just making sure we were doing it in the right way. As I been saying, I don't know certain things about him. What he did is so awful. there, were certain things I could understand, but I feel that he did love the, osage or thought he loved them, but somehow felt entitled to do what he did. I don't know how that is. I know he knew he was doing something wrong, possibly, but rationalized to himself that he was doing it for some sort of greater good, whatever that is. His own family, whatever that was. But he had his family. I don't know. it's, one of those things, that you don't always know, the motivations of characters. Sometimes it's more easy, and even then, characters don't know themselves. So I just did my best. Jesse Plemons plays Tom White, a Bureau of Investigation agent Terry Lipshetz: We have one more clip. And this is from Jesse Plemons, who played Tom White, a Bureau of Investigation agent investigating the murders. Jesse Plemons: Well, I had read the book, which was shocking and really, well written. And yeah, I've played characters in the CIA and I read a complete history of that a long time ago. But I didn't know, about the birth of the CIA. I mean, of the FBI or anything. but growing up in Texas, I actually grew up in a town outside of Waco. And there's Texas Ranger Hall of Fame there in my hometown. So there was something really strange about and nice about, playing this character and something that felt like I had I don't know, it's a part of me, I guess. and I read I think it's called Ashes of Glory or something, a, History of the Texas Rangers. And that was really helpful and changed my perspective greatly, because it tells the honest story of the Texas Rangers. And I was brought up to believe that they were these heroes. And I'm sure within that there are some people that had some sort of moral compass. But my, takeaway from that was they were more of a gang that just kind of cleared the way for the White people, and did some really horrific things. So the fact that Tom White was a part of the Texas Rangers and managed to come out such an honest, good man that, treated everyone as equal and was such a voice of justice was intimidating, to take on because his goodness is so amazing, especially for that time. Director Martin Scorsese talks about the making of the Native American film Terry Lipshetz: And finally, we do have one more clip. This again is from Director Martin Scorsese. A little bit more in depth talking about the film. Martin Scorsese: Originally, I was drawn to the story by the book by David Graham, which delineates this extraordinary, tragedy, in American history that I really knew nothing about. And the script was given to me, this was in 2017. And, I understood immediately that trying to approach this material, particularly the nature of this tragedy one would have to do it from the point of view of Leo Sage and, not the Osage as victims, but as people. Ah, to really get to know who they are to understand as much as possible the values and, their appreciation of, the world around them and the life. And so, at one point, while we were working on finishing the film Irishman, we, talked about where is the heart of the story? this systemized, kind of racist tragedy occurred. and yet many of the white people that were there who were perpetrating it were still very good friends with some of the Osage. So what is that about as part of being a human being? and, Leo said, well, what about Ernest, the character? Ernest Burkhart, who he plays in the film? Now, he was going to play another character. He said, what about him? because he's married to Molly, he had to have had something to do with these murders. We don't know what to this day. And yet she stayed with him. And I said, well, she loved him, and he loved her. Did he really love her? I think he did. Is he weak, strong, whatever? And he was manipulated by his uncle. Okay, we know all that. But by going into the love story which, by the way, was, more than hinted at, but was, explained to me by the Osage themselves, they said, don't forget they were in love, Ernest and Molly. And I said, well, let's find out how. I don't know how people could be in know. I can't describe that. It's just that we can't express it. But there's something, a bond between the two of them where she trusted and trusted to the very end. And I think that's part of the tragedy of trusting people who, come from a culture where, we think we're superior and we think the other cultures have to be coming, from I'm American, European, so it's the European culture. The Western culture is superior, so everything else gets wiped out. it's not that simple, because there are values there, and we're all part of the human condition. And so for us, this project was something that, as you say, shine a light, certainly, on this time in history. And coincidentally, in 1921, while this was happening in, Pahuska and in Fairfax, Tulsa was burning, there was the, black Wall Street was going. And we didn't know anything about that until a couple of years ago. And so m this was systematic. The country was made by white Europeans. That's it. Yeah, but the democracy and freedom for all and the pursuit of happiness for all, you see, and, this is what we wanted to get into. And the only way I thought we could do it was to go to the heart of it, really. I was going to say minimalist, in a way, go and go from the center, and then come out not from the outside in. As I said, I felt that when I first read when I looked, we even took the book, I said, if you're going to be dealing with indigenous people, I said, we're going to have to know them. We simply have to know them. And so what that means is they have to be, with us. And it's got to be different from the way other films were made about them or about their world. And so automatically, once the script was in progress, we, sent a group of people to meet, Chief Standing Bear. Then I was brought out to meet them. This is before the, COVID epidemic. And so, once meeting them, I understood that we have to be understood even more that we have to be extremely careful and not, as I pointed out earlier, not stuffy, not, prissy with everything that has to be lived in and felt. And so, in learning about how a blanket is worn, and what the designs of a blanket mean, we learn who the people are and we get to know each other. And it really was interesting. It really was. And it's something that's always fascinated me about American, indigenous people and First Nations. And so I was fascinated by it. and I tried to get as much as I could into, what they put into the film. They also, as you know, ah, so many of the Osage not only, were in front of the camera, but also behind the camera, making, designing and helping making the costumes and all the props, because a lot of this had been forgotten. Even the language has been forgotten. There's only Van Bighorse and, Chris, who's the other guy, he taught the actors how to speak Osage, including Leo and De Niro. And so they were learning their language again. And the young people are coming back, you see, for their rituals now. And the young people are beginning to the young o sage are coming back and, understanding, now the value of who they are and what their nation was and still is. And so this is something that happened. Kind of a rebirth, in a way. Terry Lipshetz: Wow. You know, hearing from those actors and scorsese again, I'm just getting more and more excited to see this film. Terry Lipshetz: I think I pretty much have to drop what I'm doing this weekend and get to it. Bruce Miller: It's on your must list. I'm putting on the must list, but I'm pulling you from all liquids. You can't drink anything before you go in. Terry Lipshetz: But it's shorter than the Irishman. It's three minutes shorter. Bruce Miller: Shorter than the Irishman. But you can't pause it. That's the problem. Yeah, it's one of those ones you want to see. And I think even though we can't hear all these interviews and see them on all these talk shows now, which is what would happen, it might be better for us to experience it first, and then when they come back, to award season, as they like to call it. We'll hear all those interviews again, and then we have, a little heads up because I think I love the idea that you don't know anything really, about what's going on, and it just kind of unfolds in front of you. It was remarkable. Remarkable. Terry Lipshetz: all right, well, on that note, first off, thanks again to EPKTV for providing us with all that audio. It's just difficult to get these actors. I know you can't really get them now because of the ongoing strike. So it's good that we were able to have a source to provide us with audio for this program. I'm looking forward to seeing this movie and looking forward to having you back again next week on another episode of streamed and screened.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

New Age and Alien Deceptions (1) (Audio) David Eells - 5/15/22 Dream of Mars Discovery Deception Garrett Crawford - 4/24/22 (David's notes in red)   I had a dream that a discovery was made on Mars. It was something that the world and the unsaved celebrated. They could not contain their excitement. I could tell this was something that would reshape world history and greatly change the course of the future in respect to beliefs and possibly religion itself. (Those who are just religious and don't know the real Jesus or have the discernment and wisdom of the Holy Spirit will be deceived by the New Age alien deception. The ‘discovery' lie that other beings were created by God and other worlds exist would create an existential crisis for many, especially Christians, and shake their belief systems to the core.) For the longest time in the dream I was not allowed to see what it was. It was a secret guarded by a select few, but eventually a few of this group of people "in the know" gave me a viewing device to see what in fact this discovery was. When I looked into it I saw a photo of the surface of Mars. It showed 3 distinct, yet very aged and weathered faces, carved into a mountainside. Although the faces looked ancient, I could clearly tell they had been carved into the mountain. Almost like an ancient and primitive Mount Rushmore.  Although it did not shake my faith in the least, I could tell that would not be the case for countless others around the world once this was revealed to the public. Then I woke up. I told my wife about the dream of the 3 faces carved into the mountain on Mars. Then this afternoon, as a seeming confirmation for my dream, my wife went to read our daughter a children's book. She opened to a random page and the image she saw was a cartoon drawing of Mt. Rushmore. It was the first time she has even opened the book.   MSM Propaganda Deception: ‘Something's Coming': Is America Finally Ready to Take UFOs Seriously? Article by The Guardian - 2/5/22 (David's notes in red)   Last year was a breakthrough time for UFOs, as a landmark government report prompted the possibility of extraterrestrial visitors to finally be taken seriously by everyone from senators, to a former president, to the Pentagon. But 2022 could be even more profound, experts say, as the clamor for UFO disclosure and discovery continues to grow, and as new scientific projects bring us closer than ever to – potentially – discovering non-Earth life. (When I was a child I saw a full disclosure of a flying saucer that was reverse engineered. I read a story about such a saucer diving into a body of water near Russia when radar was locked onto it. They expected to find wreckage of it but never found anything. It is believed that they can move freely under water. As far as the supernatural type aliens; these are demons. As far as a man-made alien they have these too.) In June, the Pentagon released a highly anticipated report on unexplained aerial phenomena (UAP), the now preferred nomenclature by some in the extraterrestrial community, which found more than 140 instances of UAPs that could not be explained. The report came after leaked military footage documented seemingly otherworldly happenings in the sky, and after testimony from navy pilots helped to somewhat de-stigmatize a subject that has long been defined by conspiracy theories and dubious sightings. All in all, the newly sincere approach to UFOs has longtime sky-watchers excited. “I'm confident that 2022 is going to be a seismic year for UFOs,” said Nick Pope, who spent the early 1990s investigating UFOs for the British ministry of defence. In Congress, where a bipartisan group of senators has been pushing for years for the government to release more information on UFOs, and from the US defense department and intelligence community, Pope said he senses “a genuine desire to grip the issue”. “I think we'll see congressional hearings on UFOs,” Pope said. “I also think we'll see the release of more US military photos and videos of UFOs, and associated documents. Some of this may come via whistleblowers, but much of it may be released by the government itself, either proactively, or in response to requests under the Freedom of Information Act. “Finally, I think we'll see more high-calibre witnesses coming forward, including commercial airline pilots, military aircrew, radar operators, and intelligence officers with direct knowledge of this subject.” It was a group of pilots who brought the issue to the fore in 2021. In a breakthrough interview with 60 Minutes, members of the US Navy lined up to recall their experiences of encountering UFOs on America's coasts. It happened so frequently that the encounters became commonplace, Ryan Graves, a retired navy pilot, told the CBS show. “Every day,” Graves said. “Every day for at least a couple years.” For years, pilots had refused to share tales of their UFO experiences, worried of being labeled kooks or being passed over for promotion. The account of the navy pilots was given credibility, however, by leaked military footage which showed an oval flying object near a US navy ship off San Diego, and separate videos which showed triangular-shaped objects buzzing around in the sky. The US government's UFO report, released in June 2021, fueled more interest. The Pentagon studied 144 incidents reported by military pilots between 2004 and 2021 in preparing the report. Officials were able to explain one of the incidents – it was a balloon – but the rest remain a mystery. Since then the Pentagon, pushed by US senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Marco Rubio, has launched a new office for reporting and analyzing UFO reports, although some in the UFO community suspect the government to be less than forthcoming with its findings. (The government has been dealing with, what they believe to be aliens for many years. A personal friend who was a colonel related to me how he saw these aliens in their underground facility. He said they could pass through walls and could eat children. They had a working relationship with the military.) Still, as the clamor for information has grown, so has interest from the scientific community, and in 2022 a slew of new projects will launch, specifically aimed at detecting alien life… “We've got to start thinking we're not alone. It's: how crowded is it up there?” A frequent backdrop to any discussion of alien life is how it would affect humans here on earth. Some speculate that religions could be shaken to their core, or that there could be a mass existential crisis... which would represent an equally devastating blow to the human sense of self-importance...   Aliens Are Demons Manifested in Flesh Garrett Crawford - 06/15/10 (David's notes in red) There are many people convinced of "aliens" or "guides" that they feel are friendly to humanity, which is a strong delusion because all of the aliens are demons, as the Scripture says. Have you noticed that many of the Planet X / Nibiru researchers have fallen for what they read the ancients said of aliens showing up when Planet X did? They were deceived by demons as a type for our day. We should not to be deceived; they are being released by God to deceive. {Jud.5} Now I desire to put you in remembrance, though ye know all things once for all, that the Lord, having saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. {6} And angels that kept not their own principality, but left their proper habitation, he hath kept in everlasting bonds under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. It is possible they will play the good alien / bad alien game to drive the multitudes into the camp of the so-called "good aliens" but they are all demons. In my dream, I was outside in a populated area, maybe in a park or something. It was nighttime and it seemed like any other summer night. All of a sudden, a lot of strange lights started appearing in the sky. First, it seemed like hundreds of shooting stars falling to Earth; then, as the light became more illuminated, the objects took the shape of spacecraft. The night sky was lit up like the Fourth of July! Everyone was shocked and amazed; from east to west the sky filled with this armada of craft entering Earth's atmosphere. (What the ancients believed were aliens, who showed up during the time of Planet X, according to their writings, were in fact demons who are fallen angels and can take on the appearance of physical bodies, just like God's angels, but for the purpose of deception. The Tribulation covenant could be made under cover of catastrophes, even Planet X / Nibiru. Just as the Woman is going into the wilderness, there is a war in heaven and Satan and his fallen angels are cast to earth to deceive the whole world. {Rev.12:9} And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him. Belinda had a dream of a bright star falling from heaven and received Isaiah 14 where Satan is falling from heaven. Isa 14:12-13  How art thou fallen from heaven, O day-star, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, that didst lay low the nations!  13  And thou saidst in thy heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; and I will sit upon the mount of congregation, in the uttermost parts of the north; 14  I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.  15  Yet thou shalt be brought down to Sheol, to the uttermost parts of the pit.) Satan deceives men into thinking he is God and he is pleased with unregenerate falsely called, “good men” which is the doctrine of the New Agers. {2Co.11:13} For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, fashioning themselves into apostles of Christ. {14} And no marvel; for even Satan fashioneth himself into an angel of light. {15} It is no great thing therefore if his ministers also fashion themselves as ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works. Babylon U.S. is partner in this deception of the nations. {Rev.18:23} and the light of a lamp shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the princes of the earth; for with thy sorcery were all the nations deceived. I was very skeptical, even while seeing this with my own two eyes. I confidently told everyone, "Don't be fooled; it's a hologram! " (Which is one of the theories.) I thought these sights were just a crafty trick (which is true but not as a false vision) but then the ships started to get closer to the ground and they ultimately landed. By this time, I was starting to get bewildered; I didn't know what to think. I was really caught off guard. I thought for sure it was all some sort of illusion by the evil rulers of the world. (They are Satanists and are in on the plan of "strong delusion", which is according to God's will. {2Th.2:8} And then shall be revealed the lawless one, whom the Lord Jesus shall slay with the breath of his mouth, and bring to nought by the manifestation of his coming; {9} even he, whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, {10} and with all deceit of unrighteousness for them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. {11} And for this cause God sendeth them a working of error, that they should believe a lie: {12} that they all might be judged who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. It appears in this dream the fallen angels' deception is so strong that God's people will be tested to see who really believes. {Mar.13:22} for there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall show signs and wonders, that they may lead astray, if possible, the elect.) Once the craft landed, the door opened and some humanoid beings walked out. Everyone was amazed and startled at the same time. I couldn't believe my eyes. Still believing this was a hologram, I ran over to the ship to touch it and realized it was real. (Satan and his angels are very technological, if they have to be, and have the ability to manifest and interact with the physical realm. They gave men atomic bombs and anti-gravity flying saucers.) I swallowed hard, realizing I was wrong and I ran back to the crowd.  The humanoid beings dressed in Star Trek-type apparel, were being led out by a blond-haired woman. (There is a woman who has introduced many to speaking and hearing from aliens. This is no different than a seance which is speaking to aliens called familiar spirits.) I, being overwhelmed and slightly intimidated, ran up to her and began to rebuke her in my tongue language. (I often do this in dreams when I feel physically or mentally helpless against an enemy; it often gets me results.)  I thought for sure she would shrivel up in a puddle of goop, like something out of The Wizard of Oz. But, to my astonishment, she just kind of pushed me out of the way, without even acknowledging me. I was perplexed. (The answer to this is, when God sends a delusion to deceive the evil world, we cannot cast it down nor should we try to. 2Th. 2:11 And for this cause God sendeth them a working of error, that they should believe a lie: {12} that they all might be judged who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. As you can see, we only have authority to help the believers.) I watched the group of beings disperse into the crowd. It seemed like they had specific orders and didn't even stop to talk to anyone; they just went about whatever it is they were sent here for. I remember being surrounded by hundreds of people like me -- everyone just totally in awe of what they saw. After some time, I started to see the beings again, but now they did not look like humans. They had glass faces, like ice. It was like they were wearing a mask, but they weren't -- I could see through their heads and nothing was inside. They had hideous, clown-like faces with big smiles, like jack-o-lanterns. (Thinking these beings to be mere humans while in fact they are demon-possessed is more common than we think. But the whole world outside of Christ will be deceived and possessed.) They were now corralling people like cattle in different areas (FEMA camps). The adults were forced to separate from the children and were taken to a designated area. The children were all taken to another area and placed in long lines, all of which led into a large circus-like tent. (This alien disclosure will bring much confusion and distraction as well as cause people to give up their faith the One True God and falling into the hands of the DS.) None of the children quite knew what was happening; they were all a little less concerned than the adults. I remember leaving the adult group and running over to see what was happening to the children. After seeing what was taking place, I immediately woke up.   The Death Bed Confessions of Werner von Braun, Elon Musk's Father? Deb sent this: "We are also seeing a big split in the ranks of the ruling oligarchy in the US.  Elon Musk, of Tesla, has apparently gotten off the fence and is now openly supporting the white hats. This is significant because Musk is the son of a prominent Nazi rocket-scientist Werner von Braun, according to Japanese intelligence and confirmed by US space force sources.  Von Braun, who is widely credited as being the brains of the US space program, made some interesting confessions as he was dying of cancer. He said the US would attempt to control the world by building space-based weapons. They would justify the massive expenditure by conjuring up fake enemies. First, the Russians, then terrorists, then third world crazies, then asteroids and finally, “the funniest one of all, aliens; extraterrestrials, that would be the final card and all of it is a lie,” he said. Here is video of the woman whom he gave his confession to: https://youtu.be/gP8ftWzFYI4  CIA sources tell us Elon Musk's public life story is a giant lie and that he was set up from the beginning to be a frontman for commercializing Nazi high tech. Sources linked to Musk provided us with evidence that electric car technology has been suppressed for a long time. Here we see electric cars being charged in 1917.  https://stillnessinthestorm.com/2022/05/benjamin-fulford-may-2nd-2022-frb-fenced-off-and-deutsche-bank-raided-in-move-to-strangle-km-funding/ Clip from Operation Disclosure: In 1921 Nikola Tesla's Pierce-Arrow electric car ran on pure etheric electricity – a self recharging car that did not run on batteries, oil or gas. Electric vehicles have been around for much longer than most people realize. This is not even a myth, just a cover up of our lost technology so that they could bill us every step of the way, and have a complete control over us. Free energy = Independence, freedom from the matrix, freedom to go wherever you want, live off grid, have heat and electricity, and live your life happily without government interferences.   I Met Satan :o) Garrett Crawford - 4/19/11 (David's notes in red) I would like to share a dream I had that confirms we should not fear Satan or evil. Evil is not as powerful as our minds sometimes imagine and Satan is no different. I dreamed that I was with an unknown person in this dream that I believe was an angel. I could tell he knew a lot more of what was going on than I did. I accompanied him everywhere he went. I was like an observer. Toward the end of the dream, we entered an elevator. This elevator took us deep inside the earth. I was told we were going to Hell to see Satan. The ride took a long time and my mind was wondering about how Satan would really appear. I was thinking, “Would he be intimidating? Would he be scary? How would I react to seeing him?" Once we arrived at the very bottom, the door opened. I looked around and we were inside a very large, dark cave. Hell was just like I'd imagined it: Big, dark and cavernous. I looked out of the area we were in and looked out into the larger opening. I saw armies and very sophisticated weapons. There was violence taking place and fire was everywhere; it was almost like a war itself. One of the weapons spotted us as we came out of the elevator and fired a missile at us, but it missed and exploded against the wall. My companion, the angel, was never frightened; it was like he knew nothing could hurt him. As he walked, I followed; he knew right where he was walking. He came to a door off in a dark corner in the cave. I realized this was Satan's office. Behind the door was the evil one himself. My heart was racing, not from fear but from the suspense. The angel I was with opened the door and there sat Satan in a chair behind a desk. But to my amazement, Satan was not a seven-foot giant with goats horns. He was a clown. Yes, a clown. And a cartoon clown at that. I was shocked and a little disappointed. I was expecting something more terrifying. Clearly the Lord is saying that Satan and his demons are not to be feared. {Luk.10:17} And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject unto us in thy name. {18} And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven. {19} Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you. The angel then revealed to me that Satan is planning something big for earth. During our trip back up in the elevator, I saw all these green vines shooting up through the elevator shaft from Hell and they were headed straight to Earth. There were a lot of them, like something from Jack and the Beanstalk. But instead of reaching from Earth to the heavens, they were going from Hell to the earth above. Then I woke up. (According to the follow up dream that Father gave Garrett recently, the vines represent the alien deception that satan is sending to earth from the pit of hell.)   Garrett said, “Below is a continuation from the dream above from 2011 called. “I Met Satan". It has the green vines connection where there were green vines growing up from hell and the angel told me "Satan is planning something big for earth.” Well it seems the green vines finally made it to earth and the plan is revealed....   Satan is Planning Something Big for Earth Garrett Crawford - 5/13/22 (David's notes in red) Garrett said, "For a little context; many years ago I worked for mortgage companies securing and repairing vacant foreclosures." I dreamed that me and my dad had been given a work order to secure and inspect a foreclosed home in Los Angeles, California. (Los Angeles means, “The angels.”) It was a big house in a nice neighborhood. It was owned by a black husband and wife in their 50's or 60's. (UFO's and aliens were big in the 50's and 60's. The black couple owning the house could represent that this is a house of sinners submitted to darkness.) (I gathered this information by looking at their family photos still left at the property.) I thought these folks looked very successful from the photos. It didn't make sense to me how they could lose their house to foreclosure. (Foreclosure means that they can't pay their debt so the house is taken back. The debt for our house has been paid by faith in Jesus. If it's not paid because there is no faith then it belongs to the devil.) I thought maybe one or both of them died. But I wasn't sure. I just knew something was amiss. (When one loses their house to the devil, their soul is his too.) We proceeded through the large house taking photos with a camera I had rented at a local camera shop. These photos were to be provided to the bank. Then we walked into the basement and to our utter amazement we saw a small alien infant tangled up in green vines that appeared to be growing from the floor of the basement. (And according to the previous dream they came straight out of hell. This represents the alien deception.)  The vines were attached to the wall and the infant was wrapped up in them. He had a large brown head with 2 large eyes. When we saw him and approached him he became aggressive and hissed at us. (The aliens/demons hate Christians.) I remember taking the rented camera and snapping pictures of him. Even though I was astonished at this I was not overly distracted by it. I proceeded with my work at the property. My dad and I decided not to show the photos to anyone as it would become a distraction to the public. (Could this represent the Father hiding things from the wise and prudent and revealing it unto babes?) I knew people would not be ready to see this. I downloaded the photos off the camera and told my dad to return the camera to the shop. Later, I had sent my report and inspection photos to the bank. The next day I was out and about and realized the whole world was aware of the alien we had found! They had our photos! They were in every publication and on every news station. I had no idea how this had leaked. (True Christians will recognize this as a deception while the rest of the world will swallow the lie, like the waters out of the mouth of the Dragon.) I assumed it was because we returned the camera and the camera shop found the photos on the device and released them. I knew we had discovered it but no one would ever know our identity. I was ok with that, but I was a little disturbed how and why they were released. The world was in a frenzy to say the least. A few days had passed and I was sent back to the same home by the bank to remove the small area of vines growing in the basement. When I got back to the house the alien child was gone but the basement dining room was now absolutely full of green vines. (This will be a world wide deception that will be ‘fed' to all the people and has been planned by the DS for many years.)  The walls and ceiling were now covered. I was supposed to remove them, and it was a daunting task. Then, my dad showed up and we were talking about the alien. The next thing I knew, I stumbled across the rented camera in the basement. I got so upset at my dad because he returned the case but not the camera. (Honestly, I was worried about the late fees. Lol) He said he forgot to look inside the case when he returned it. I realized something strange had happened. How did the world know of the alien if we never took the camera back? Who released the photos? Then I woke up.  (2Th 2:8-12  And then shall be revealed the lawless one, whom the Lord Jesus shall slay with the breath of his mouth, and bring to nought by the manifestation of his coming;  9  even he, whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,  10  and with all deceit of unrighteousness for them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.  11  And for this cause God sendeth them a working of error, that they should believe a lie:  12  that they all might be judged who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.)   If They Lied Once They Will Lie Again Clips from Operation Disclosure: White Hat Intelligence: “If we didn't go to the Moon, where did all the money go that we spent to supposedly get there? 50 years ago NASA supposedly had the technology in Shuttle crafts to travel 230,000 miles away to the moon. This Shuttle needed only one tank of gas and could easily (supposedly) travel through the Van Allen Radiation Belt with no problems. Today [they NASA] can and has ONLY traveled 1/thousandth of the distance since 50 years ago. Back then [they] had technology that was only 1/millionth as strong and capable of today's Smart phone. Today all evidence of Apollo 11 Shuttle craft/ blue prints and original videos have been destroyed. Nothing has been saved from this historic journey and records. All that remains are edited videos of a moon landing that shows three different shadows from the different lighting sources in some clips. No stars in the back ground (later added). Only one photo of Earth was made public for 50 years. The astronauts were warned not to give interviews and seldom do. If NASA did go to moon 50 years ago they would have technology and videos to this day of life traveling to Mars and beyond by now. But NASA can't even duplicate their  Apollo 11 journey, even with the most sophisticated computers and technology to this day that is 1 million times stronger than in 1969. All Apollo 11 equipment was destroyed. All original video tapes destroyed. All original blue prints destroyed. No one would ever do this destruction of a historical land mark and journey in U.S. world history unless they were destroying evidence. Today you can't get good phone service in the forest or far from the city in high terrains or canyons or the oceans, but evidently back in 1969 you had perfect technology to speak with astronauts 150,000 miles away? There is footage coming out by NASA whistleblowers who have leaked the fake videos of Apollo 11 Astronauts  pretending to be traveling half way to the moon. The Radiation Field between the Earth and moon is 25,000 miles thick. To this day they don't have the technology to travel through the Radiation Belt. NASA Astronauts Col. Terry Virts, Dr. Kathleen Rubins and Dr. Kelly Smith (NASA Engineer) say in official NASA videos that no one has gone beyond low Earth orbit through the Van Allen Belts of dangerous radiation yet. This means no one has landed on the Moon yet. (Now all three NASA employees are banned from talking to the public). Think: How can a small Space Shuttle leave the Earth, which is spinning 1,000 miles an hour on it's axis and flying through the Universe at four times the speed of a bullet? How does a NASA shuttle leave Earth to travel a half million miles round trip on a tank of gas, make it through 25,000 miles of a Radiation Belt, have perfect radio communication in 1969 when NASA only had less than 1/millionth of computing power of today's Smart Phone and why was all evidence of Apollo 11 destroyed? (Ooh! Good Question!)   Alien / Demon DisclosureOld Gods and New - Imminent Disclosure? By Gary Stearman (David's notes in red) The definition of Disclosure is, ... the revealing of something long held secret. For important reasons, we now need to be sensitive to this word. In the coming days, it is likely to be resounding through the public media. Of late, this term has been used of several governments around the world ... France and England, to name two ... which have "disclosed" that they have been concealing years of detailed records concerning their interaction with unidentified flying objects ... UFOs.. After decades of fanatical secrecy, they are beginning to reveal that both the phenomenon and the beings associated with it are real. What's more, they are now hinting that they have had various relationships (including technology trades) with alien intelligences. In August of 2009, the U. K. government released thousands of pages of historical UFO documents, kept during the years 1981-1996. They are now online and have also been made available in the public domain. They reportedly detail many close encounters, purported abductions and especially, in-depth documentation about what has been called "Britain's Roswell", the Rendlesham Forest Air Base event that took place in Suffolk. Up to now, the major world media have been reluctant to touch this subject. However, a number of news sources at the edge of society have begun to document the back-channel chatter about our dealings with aliens, reportedly taking place at high levels in our government. One such source is datelined October 21, 2009, published by examiner.com and reporter Michael Salia, PhD. He writes: "An official announcement by the Obama administration disclosing the reality of extraterrestrial life is imminent. (I pray Obama never gets to see these aliens up close in their natural habitat.) For several months, senior administration officials have been quietly deliberating behind closed doors about how much to disclose to the world about extraterrestrial life. (This is such a topic of interest because many have not found intelligent life on this planet yet!)  Dissatisfaction among powerful institutions such as the U.S. Navy over the decades-long secrecy policy has given a boost to efforts to disclose the reality of extraterrestrial life and technology. "The impending disclosure announcement follows upon the secret implementation of a year-long openness policy on UFOs and extraterrestrial life. Over the period February 12-14, 2008, the United Nations held closed doors discussions where approximately 30 nations secretly agree on a new openness policy on UFOs and extraterrestrial life in 2009.  The openness policy was implemented but never publicly announced due to threats against UN diplomats to not disclose details of the secret agreement. The secret UN agreement was based on two conditions. First, UFOs would continue to appear around the world; and second, the openness policy would not lead to social unrest in liberal democracies. Both conditions have been satisfied making it possible for the next stage to begin - official disclosure of extraterrestrial life".   Extraterrestrials? No. What is behind the current UFO phenomenon? Certainly, it involves advanced super-vehicles and visiting aliens. But just as certainly, the visitors are not sci-fi space travelers. Our guide to truth, the Bible, simply does not speak of travelers from the stars, coming here in the latter days to guide mankind into a new age of peace and enlightenment. In Gen. 6:2 the "sons of God” are not fallen angels who descended from heaven to take human wives, resulting in the corruption of mankind as we shall see:   Flesh is Born of Flesh and not DemonsExcerpt from: Sons of God, Aliens and GiantsDavid Eells God said in John 3:6,  That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. So Demons cannot birth Children through humans. Demons can infest humans with lying spirits. (Gen.6:1) And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters were born unto them, (2) that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all that they chose. Believers are the sons of God mentioned here and in the rest of Scriptures (Ps.82:6; Dt.14:1,2; Hos.1:10; Isa.43:6; etc.). Notice this was "when men began to multiply" not angels. Jesus quoted Psa.82:6 to His people: (82:6) I said, Ye are gods, And all of you sons of the Most High. To be a son you must be born of God, not created, as the angels. Adam was called a son of God and he was born of God when He breathed into him the breath or Spirit (same Hebrew word) of life. Only his flesh was created from the earth and so was ours, which came from his. God specifically says that He never called an angel His son nor are they born of Him. (Heb.1:5) For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, This day have I begotten (Greek: "born") thee?.... God specifically says their spirits were created. (7) And of the angels he saith, Who maketh (created) his angels winds (Greek: "spirits"). The proponents of this false doctrine say that Satan came among the angels in Job who were said to be sons of God. It does not say that. Satan, the highest fallen angel, was not a son of God but only came among them to be their accuser as he did with Job. (Job 1:6) Now it came to pass on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah, that Satan also came among them. He immediately begins to accuse them to God. (11) But put forth thy hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will renounce thee to thy face. Here is the same case. (Zec.3:1) And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of Jehovah, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary. (2) And Jehovah said unto Satan, Jehovah rebuke thee, O Satan; yea, Jehovah that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee. (3) Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the angel. {4} And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take the filthy garments from off him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with rich apparel. Joshua, the Hebrew word for Jesus, and Jerusalem represent the same thing here, the body of Christ who are being accused by Satan. Paul said the heavenly Jerusalem was "the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven" (Heb.12:23). We are seated with Christ in heavenly places. We as the sons of God present ourselves before him constantly and Satan comes among us to accuse us. We are never out of God's presence. You will notice that God separated the line of Seth and the line of Cain in Gen.4 and 5, just as he separated Israel from the Gentiles and commanded them to not cross. In the New Testament Christians are forbidden to marry unbelievers (1 Cor.7:39), although if you are married to one do not leave them for God can save them (7:12-14). Notice in all three of these cases we are talking about crossing the sons of God and the sons of the Devil, or men, which is strictly forbidden (1 Cor.7:39; Ezra 9:2; 10:10; 2 Cor.6:14-18). In all of these cases when the sons of God fell away they began to have fellowship with fallen angels which we call demons (Psa.78:49, called here "angels of evil"; 2 Cor.12:7; Greek: "angel of Satan") Demons did not directly create giants because they cannot. The Scripture teaches that each seed brings forth after its own kind. Jesus said, "that which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit". Therefore, spirits cannot bring forth flesh. Some would argue that Jesus was born of God. Jesus' spirit was born of God but His flesh was born of David through Mary; "the seed of the woman". {Rom.1:3} concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh, {4} who was declared [to be] the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead. Spirits can inhabit bodies of men that can procreate but they cannot have anything to do with making giants through marrying the daughters of men. (Mat.22:29) But Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. (30) For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as angels in heaven. Fallen angels do not procreate man's flesh but his spirit and soul. Spirits sow a spiritual seed, not a physical one. Jesus is the Word, who in Matthew 13 sowed the seed of the Word in His people's heart to bring forth His fruit in them, 30, 60, and 100 fold. In Mat.13:24,27,32 the word for seed in Greek is "sperma". Demons also sow their "sperm" in mankind's hearts to bring forth their evil fruit but this is their spiritual man and not their flesh. Seth, the son of God, is mentioned in the spiritual lineage of Jesus. (Luk.3:38) the [son] of Enos, the [son] of Seth, the [son] of Adam, the [son] of God You will notice that God mentions all of Cain's wicked descendants in Gen.4:16-24. After this we are told, (Gen. 4:25) And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth. For, [said she], God hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel; for Cain slew him. (26) And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enosh. Then began men to call upon the name of Lord.  Notice after all that evil seed God gave one to replace Abel the righteous seed. Why didn't any of Cain's seed replace Abel as a righteous seed? Obviously his seed were evil. (1 Jn.3:12) not as Cain was of the evil one. Only after Seth and his son were born did the scripture say "men (plural) began to call on the name of the Lord". Obviously Cain and his tribe did not call on the Lord. They were sons and daughters of men and as such called on the devil. After Adam there was not another son of God born until Seth; skipping over all of the seed of Cain. (Gen.5:3) And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begat [a son] in his own likeness, after his image (a son of God) ; and called his name Seth. Notice none of Cain's descendants were sons of God but were of men. How then were the giants made? Seth and Cain's lineages stayed separate for hundreds of years. They inbred within their lines, which was not against the command of God at this time. In nature, especially after the curse, this deteriorates the line. They became weaker, smaller, and less intelligent. Wherever there has been inbreeding today, the descendants are sickly in mind and body. When the sons of God began to fall away some became inhabited by demons. This also happened in Israel and Christianity because history always repeats. (Ecc.1:9) That which hath been is that which shall be; and that which hath been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.  When after years of inbreeding the fallen sons of God and the sons of men crossed, making what is called in nature hybrids. The "Nephilim" were bigger, stronger, and more intelligent because as hybrids they end up with the better physical characteristics of both lines. Later in the Law God forbid inbreeding, at least with close relatives. Now even cousins are a no-no because the farther from Adam we go the stronger the curse has become.  The serpent obviously walked on legs in the Garden because God cursed him to crawl on his belly. That curse was gradual and increased as time went by. Even in Job's day, which was in Jacob's day, he was seeing dinosaurs in Job 40:15 - 41:34. You have to ignore translator's silly notes calling them hippopotamus and crocodile. We have never seen a hippo with a tail like a cedar tree or a croc that stood so tall that a multitude of men with spears and arrows dared not even approach him. The dinosaurs were serpents with legs. Even today some serpents have vestiges of legs beneath their skin. The fire-breathing dragon in Job 41:18-21 was a tyrannosaurus. This was one type of the serpent in that time but it was cast down by the curse to crawl on its belly. {Rev.12:9} And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent...The increasing curse made it more and more improbable for giants, human or beast, to be bred. Back to Gary's text: Satan and his fallen angels who came to be worshiped by men. Later, idols were erected in their names: Baal, Moloch, Dagon and others. The Egyptian solar disc called Ra was surrounded by Isis, Osiris and a retinue of immortals. Fallen angels were the source of Greek and Roman demigods and goddesses ... Zeus, Apollo, Aphrodite, Artemis ... super-beings with super knowledge. (Some of these are not separate gods but are their names in different cultures. These are titles and traditions of the original false gods and virgin birth story of Nimrod, Semiramis and Tamuz. This story was familiar to these cultures from Babel before they were separated and spread throughout the earth by God.) To put it bluntly, they were man's earliest contact with "aliens from outer space". Since Christ's first coming, accompanied by the general dispensation of the Holy Spirit, they have quietly receded into the background. But just as prophesied for the latter days, they have risen to prominence once again. Given their transdimensional origins, they have the ability to appear in the guise most easily accepted by contemporary society. In the current case, they simply meet man's expectations that there is life on other planets. So they pose as extraterrestrial visitors, bringing advanced technology. But make no mistake, they are one and the same people as the ancient gods. And their goal is the same, namely, to corrupt man to such an extent that Christ's redemption is rendered null and void.   Old Gods and New In the book of Deuteronomy's Song of Moses, Israel is rebuked for having worshiped these false gods: Deu. 32:16,17 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger. "They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.  Moses' song is an extended prophecy for the latter days, predicting the events that will characterize Israel's beliefs and behaviors in the period leading up to and including the judgments of the Tribulation. Here, he recalls Israel's past involvement with the false gods, their graven images and idols. These, we now identify as fallen angels and their demonic subordinates. They have emerged once again to prepare the way for the world of the Antichrist. (See Hidden Manna for the End Times for the true nature of Antichrist Beast that so few understand.) But take note especially of the future reference to the "new gods that came newly up". Here, Moses prophesies that entirely new gods of the same genre as the old gods will make their appearance in the latter days. Are we seeing these today, masquerading as space travelers?… (The new age people are in contact with these demons and report their words to the world. The new age people are their prophets.) Though we cannot be dogmatic on the issue, it is nevertheless compelling that this prophecy refers to new gods, unknown to the patriarchs of ancient Israel. It appears that contemporary men of science and technology are now worshiping these new gods, as they bring their gifts of advanced knowledge from the stars. Such tokens are welcomed by those who worship science rather than God. (Many point out that, "As were the days of Noah, so it shall be in the coming of the son of man". So we have to have the same problem today with giants. But they're not the giants that we have the type and the shadow for in the Old Testament. We can't make gossip into doctrine. There are people that say they've seen these giants. In fact, I heard a story about giants that were seen and disappeared in front of them. Well, that lets you know that they weren't fleshly giants. And these giants in the Bible were flesh. They died. They were killed. The flood wiped them out. Doesn't sound much like man crossed with angels. If they were, they didn't have much angel in them did they? They all died. Normal sized humans in the Bible killed these giants. So just how much angel could they have had in them?  Just one angel in the Bible killed 185,000 men. You don't want to mess with them. Now, if we had two or three witnesses, fine, but what we really have is a whole bunch of fables that the Christians are passing on just like the Jews did. Any giants that disappear are just like the aliens; they're just demonic manifestations, not men.  In a Bible Code search for these things, Fabrice found a matrix which said, "The Aliens / All are Seraphim / Many are [the] UFOs / All are demons / The Wicked ones". Remember that angels manifested in the appearance of men in the Bible and so can demons. We also have on our site a testimony by a man who became a Christian when researching alien abductions and finding out that when many Christians were abducted and used the name of Jesus on the aliens, they found themselves in their bed and the aliens were nowhere to be seen. The same colonel that I spoke of earlier was forced to sign a pledge to not speak the name of Jesus around the aliens in the DS underground cities.) Also read: Aliens Are Demons Manifested in Flesh Alien Demons Bow to Jesus' Name Sons of God, Aliens & Giants Of course if aliens planted life on this planet some would say, “God is old fashioned.” This is the whole point the devil wants to make. And also, these aliens will do everything they can to destroy the Bible and belief in God.   “Added Books of the Bible" Disproven by God David Eells - 4-27-22 The people are wrong who say: "There were other books of the Bible that should have been included or the apocryphal books should not have been taken out. Saying we only had 66 of them, while many were missing. The White Hats retrieved all of them from the basement of the Vatican.” Who made these people experts on the anointed words which they have never followed? There have been many books hidden at the Vatican but numerics is a pattern in every letter of the original Greek and Hebrew; parts of which are shown in various ancient manuscripts. Every manuscript can be proven as to where this pattern is or isn't, showing the original text.  This pattern was designed by God to prove that only the 66 books are inspired by Him. No other book has been found to have this complete pattern in every letter and its position. The Catholics added their apocryphal books that were proven not to have this pattern. The original KJV had these books in it. Satan and his "aliens" want desperately to pollute the Bible. The "New Agers” throw out the book of Revelations, which has this perfect pattern disproving their 1000 years of peace. Where the original "Numeric Greek New Testament" is used Bible skip sequence codes will show up all through the text. God pronounces a curse at the end of the true Bible on all who add to or take from its Words. Rev 22:18-21  I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto them, God shall add unto him the plagues which are written in this book:  19  and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the tree of life, and out of the holy city, which are written in this book.  66 Books Proven by Math Science Proves the Bible Numeric English New Testament The Holy Bible, Wholly True Numerics and the KJV Numeric Materials       Select LanguageAfrikaansAlbanianAmharicArabicArmenianAzerbaijaniBasqueBelarusianBengaliBosnianBulgarianCatalanCebuanoChichewaChinese (Simplified)Chinese (Traditional)CorsicanCroatianCzechDanishDutchEsperantoEstonianFilipinoFinnishFrenchFrisianGalicianGeorgianGermanGreekGujaratiHaitian CreoleHausaHawaiianHebrewHindiHmongHungarianIcelandicIgboIndonesianIrishItalianJapaneseJavaneseKannadaKazakhKhmerKinyarwandaKoreanKurdish (Kurmanji)KyrgyzLaoLatinLatvianLithuanianLuxembourgishMacedonianMalagasyMalayMalayalamMalteseMaoriMarathiMongolianMyanmar (Burmese)NepaliNorwegianOdia (Oriya)PashtoPersianPolishPortuguesePunjabiRomanianRussianSamoanScots GaelicSerbianSesothoShonaSindhiSinhalaSlovakSlovenianSomaliSpanishSundaneseSwahiliSwedishTajikTamilTatarTeluguThaiTurkishTurkmenUkrainianUrduUyghurUzbekVietnameseWelshXhosaYiddishYorubaZulu Powered by Translate Printer-friendly version

Dennis Savage is the Producer of the YouTube channel Bring ‘Em Back to Life. He spends his time traveling around the country interviewing salvage yard owners creating what he calls ‘Memory Candy’ through the old cars and trucks he finds and their caretakers. Dennis was raised riding in Model T’s and A’s, homemade doodlebugs, touring cars including a Pierce Arrow, and his Grandpa’s 1934 Rolls Royce. He and his fiancé Renee eloped in a ’57 Chevy he named ‘The Blue Angel, and that started a 50-year love affair with Tri-Five Chevrolets. Dennis loves the challenge of getting an old car running again and then making it go… and stop!

Read Full Transcript In the year 1920, professional football was at a crossroads. The league could have easily fallen into the depths of obscurity, or it could rise to a level of greatness. An automobile showroom in Canton, OH would serve as the backdrop for this pivotal moment, and buckets of beer all over the showroom would serve as the liquid refreshment that would help decide the fate of the NFL. THE FOUNDER OF THE NFL'S BACKGROUND When we step off our time machine in this episode, we end up in Canton, OH. Yes, this is the home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but it wasn’t around at the year of our landing. The day is January 12, 1891. We’re here to look at our hero of the episode, Ralph E. Hay. We landed on the day he was born, and we’re in the city he lived in and ended up founding what would ultimately be known as the National Football League. Ralph would end up working at a car dealership after graduating high school. Soon he found he had a knack for selling cars, which probably can at least partially explain why he was able to sell the rest of the teams in the area to form a new league. After a few years of selling cars, Ralph decided to open his own dealership, called Ralph E. Hay Motor Company. His dealership would sell Hupmobiles (affiliate link) , Jordans, and Pierce-Arrows (affiliate link). Hupmobiles seemed to me more like the working-man class vehicles. They were a little more affordable and not so flashy compared to the rest. A Pierce-Arrow was the luxurious car that exuded classiness. Many famous people of the time were known to have Pierce-Arrows in their collection. Some of the names more recognizable to me included John D. Rockefeller, Orville Wright, J. Edgar Hoover, and Babe Ruth. Another cool note about the Pierce-Arrow car is 1909 President Howard Taft requested the vehicles become the official car of the White House. To me, the more interesting vehicle sold at the Ralph E. Hay Motor Company was the Jordan’s. The company was said to be the first to give more exotic names to the cars. A few examples include Sports Marine, Tomboy, and Playboy. The Playboy had an ad that many marketers claim was the turning point in the automotive industry advertising game. It was a picture of a cool looking dude riding in a Jordan Playboy, with a cowboy on a horse chasing him. What was more intriguing was the ad copy that was posted with the picture. This was meant to get the blood pumping for guys that would read the ad to make them want to immediately go to the dealership to purchase one. The ad went as such: “Somewhere west of Laramie there’s a bronco-busting, steer-roping girl who knows what I’m talking about. She can tell what a sassy pony, that’s a... Support this podcast

Derek Hill has a long history with cars. He is the son of America’s first Formula 1 World Driving Champion, Phil Hill, and he is the current Master of Ceremonies for the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance which he has attended since birth. Like his father, Derek initially pursued a career in motorsports, earning class wins at the 24 Hours of Daytona and the 12 Hours of Sebring, as well as many other races. He has also pursued historic racing at the Goodwood Revival and Monterey Reunion. Derek was kind enough to show up in a family owned Pierce Arrow that was used most recently to take him and his wife on their first drive as a newly married couple. The trip through the Malibu Canyon was certainly not what Derek expected but he did very much enjoy it, and we hope you enjoy it too!

…while most comedians tell jokes to make you laugh, Harley Worthit makes you laugh just by walking onto the stage! Known for his colorful, crazy, and ever-changing outfits, this guy is one of Branson’s favorite comedians. Known in real life as Perry Edenburn, Harley Worthit has been performing in the Ozarks since 1985 when he was asked to ‘fill-in’ for a comedian who left town mid season.        Since that eventful day, Harley has performed on almost every stage in town along with performers such as Pam Tillis and Clay Cooper. He has been a part of numerous shows including the Presleys, Pierce Arrow, and A Heaping Spoonful, and for the last five years has been keeping pretty busy making people laugh over at Grand Country Music Hall. Six days a week (and twice a day during spring and fall) is a lot of laughter!        If you ask Branson locals you’ll find that Harley is one of their favorite comedians on the strip. “He’s great! You never know what the jokes will be from show to show!” “His outfits….they’re a comedy routine in and of themselves!” “You never know what he’s going to say next…but you know it will be funny!” Performers in town love to work with him as well; “it’s fun to work with people who make YOU laugh every day.”        It’s easy to keep up with Harley even when you’re not in Branson; he’s got his own Facebook page and posts a daily joke sure to start your day off with a smile and a giggle or two. And if you don’t get a chance to catch Harley in Branson, he may be performing in a town near you. Perry doesn’t believe in having down time, and is always on the go! Harley takes his show on the road every January, as well as several weekends throughout the year. Every routine is different….so go find him. We promise….he’s more than Worthit!

Tesla: un nom qui en dehors de la marque de véhicules électriques et de l'unité de mesure du champ magnétique, n'est que rarement associé à l'inventeur américain d'origine serbe né au XIXème siècle et qui participa à l'essor du courant alternatif qui est aujourd'hui indispensable à notre monde.Après avoir découvert son ascension jusqu’à la gloire dans l’épisode précédent sur Nikola Tesla, nous allons découvrir dans celui-ci la deuxième partie plus sombre de sa vie et nous débunkerons aussi un certain nombre de fausses idées à son propos.Ce dossier a été réalisé pour Podcastscience et a été présenté en premier lors du live du 21 juin 2016. Vous pourrez aussi le retrouver sur le site de podcastscience. La suite du succès Dans l’épisode précédent nous avons découvert Tesla, son enfance, son éducation, la création du moteur AC polyphasé et son apothéose avec l’utilisation de ses concepts pour dompter les chûtes du Niagara. Nous avons déjà eu l’occasion d’explorer certains mythes autour de Tesla, notamment concernant l’invention du courant alternatif (non il ne l’a pas inventé) et ce qu’il a pu faire autour du moteur à courant alternatif (il a mis au point un moteur et déposé un brevet en premier, mais dans un contexte où l’idée était dans l’air).Après ce succès, Tesla est retourné à son laboratoire pour reprendre ses recherches et notamment sur la transmission d’énergie sans fil, mais pas uniquement. En effet, avec ses conférences en Europe, il a pu intégrer le fait qu’il pouvait aussi transmettre des messages sans fil. Et tout ceci à travers la Terre.Tesla continua des faire des conférences entre fin 1892 et 1893 pour mettre en avant ses recherches et émerveiller le public. A Philadelphie et à Saint Louis aux Etats-Unis il exploitait l’effet de peau pour passer pour un magicien et illuminer des ampoules et des tubes fluorescents ou provoquer la création d’arc électriques …Tesla holding a gas-filled phosphor coated wireless light bulb which he developed in the 1890's, half a century before fluorescent lamps come into use. Published on the cover of the Electrical Experimenter in 1919.Dans la foulée de ces conférences, Tesla repris son système de plaques avec sa bobine de Tesla et fut capable de recevoir de manière intermittente des signaux jusqu’à une distance de 2 kilomètres. En fait il ne comprenait pas pourquoi des fois il captait des signaux et des fois il n’en captait pas. Il semble que comme son générateur électrique n’avait pas forcément toujours la même vitesse de rotation, la fréquence des ondes qu’il générait n’était pas fixe, mais variait. Et comme il avait mis au point son système pour répondre à une fréquence en particulier et bien des fois, il perdait le signal (un peu comme quand sur votre radio vous vous éloignez un peu de la fréquence de la chaîne que vous écoutez).En perfectionnant ses systèmes électriques pour rendre les fréquences plus stables, Tesla aboutit à un système générant des vibrations mécaniques qui pouvait être agréable pour les humains. La sérendipité dont Alan avait déjà eu l’occasion de parler dans des évènements précédents.. Mark Twain que Tesla comptait depuis quelques temps parmi ses amis vint d’ailleurs la tester. L’histoire retient qu’après en avoir reconnu les effets bénéfiques il dût se précipiter aux toilettes pour accomplir ses besoins, la machine ayant provoqué quelques mouvements intestinaux imprévus[1] …La légende voudrait que Tesla ait accroché un oscillateur mécanique équivalent à la structure de son laboratoire des années plus tard et cela aurait provoqué un mini tremblement de terre, même si de forts doutes existent[2]. En fait l’idée derrière ce genre de chose c’est que son oscillateur vibrait en résonance avec la structure du bâtiment et faisait un peu comme pour les soldats marchant au pas à la fréquence de résonance d’un pont jusqu’à ce qu’il s’écroule.A cette époque-là Tesla répétait que les ondes EM n’étaient pas capables de transporter de l’information[3] et pour lui, ces expériences qu’il réalisait démontraient plutôt ses idées de courant à la Terre … Il alla ainsi dans une direction opposée aux autres personnes travaillant sur la radio en tentant de maximiser le courant passant par la Terre et diminuant au maximum les ondes EM pouvant être générées.C’est d’ailleurs à cette époque que Tesla développe son idée de pouvoir pomper un peu d’énergie dans la Terre et en récupérer énormément via la résonance. Conviction provenant de quelques expériences mal interprétées qu’il cherchera à valider expérimentalement les années suivantes. En effet, il avait deux analogies en tête : d’une part il pensait que comme pour un orage, un éclair déclenchant une grande chute de pluie, une petite impulsion pouvait selon lui déclencher un gros résultat. D’autre part, il pensait aussi que la résonance pouvait impliquer des résultats beaucoup plus important que si on ne prenait pas en compte la fréquence propre du système que l’on étudiait. Son idée importante qu’il va ainsi tenter de développer pendant le reste de sa vie est donc la suivante : si l’on envoyait une impulsion à la fréquence de résonance de la Terre, on pouvait arriver à renforcer les impulsions et obtenir à la sortie (un autre point sur la Terre) une quantité importante d’énergie.N. Tesla, Famous Scientific Illusions, “Electrical Experimenter”, Février 1919, p 692-694Mais revenons aux travaux de Tesla. Après avoir breveté ses inventions (ces oscillateurs), il tenta la même approche que celle qu’il avait entrepris avec Peck et Brown pour le moteur AC. Il chercha à se rapprocher du gratin New Yorkais pour entrer en contact avec des investisseurs et la presse et il y réussit[4]. Ceci lui permettrait de faire parler de ses inventions et trouver des fonds pour les développer[5] …Tesla s’associa ainsi de nouveau à Brown (mais pas à Peck mort en 1890) et à Adams (celui des chutes du niagara). Adams finança la société et tenta de trouver d’autres investisseurs. Mais en 1893 les états-unis était dans une crise financière. Malgré les efforts de Brown et Adams pour trouver des investisseurs et de Tesla pour arriver à en faire parler dans la presse et faire des conférences toutes plus magiques et extravagantes, ce fut un échec[6] cuisant du point de vue business même si Tesla continuait ses recherches. Nouveau labo, Rayons X et bateau commandé à distance Malheureusement tout ce que Tesla avait pu entreprendre dans son laboratoire pris fin prématurément quand un feu se déclara le 13 mars 1895. Il n’avait pas pris d’assurance pour son laboratoire et perdit donc tout l’argent qui avait pu être investi dans son matériel et tout le travail qu’il avait pu réalisé …Suite à cet évènement il emménagea dans un nouveau laboratoire sur Houston Street à New York. En novembre 1895 il entendit parler de la découvert de Roentgen à propos des rayons X. En découvrant ces travaux Tesla fit ce qu’il avait pu faire avec d’autres découvertes dont il avait parlé : il chercha à mieux les comprendre pour tenter de les reproduire et voire l’exploitation commerciale possible.Sauf qu’il comprit rapidement que ce qu’il avait pris pour une erreur dans une photo prise de Mark Twain avec des tubes Geissler était en fait lié aux rayons X. En effet, sur la plaque photographique se trouvait “imprimé” une partie du mécanisme de l’appareil photo et pas Mark Twain….Certains estiment, comme Margaret Cheney par exemple que c’est la preuve que Tesla aurait ainsi découvert les rayons X en premier. Je ne pense clairement pas que l’on puisse dit que Tesla en fut le découvreur, sinon il en aurait parlé, il aurait publié des choses dans les journaux comme il pouvait le faire sur d’autres sujets, etc. Et selon moi c’est d’autant plus vrai qu’il n’a d’ailleurs jamais réclamé la paternité des rayons X. Par la suite il réalisa d’autres expériences mais les brûlures resenties par les sujets et le fait que peu d’entreprises étaient susceptibles de pouvoir écouler ce type de matériel[7] lui firent arrêter son travail sur les rayons X.A la suite de ces recherches il entreprit de développer ce qu’il appelait la téléautomatique. Il avait depuis longtemps en tête le fait que les humains étaient des automates réagissant à des stimulis externes. Depuis les quelques cours qu’il eut l’occasion de suivre à Prague lors de sa jeunesse en Europe notamment. C’est une idée dont j’ai déjà eu l’occasion de parler dans l’épisode précédent.. Dans la suite d’un cours de Carl Stumpf, qu’il eut lors de son passage à prague, celui-ci enseigna en effet à Tesla le principe de l’esprit en tant que table rase où rien n’est inné et tout n’est que réponse aux stimuli des sens. Ce concept accompagna Tesla tout au long de sa vie et forma son point de vue sur l’Homme en tant qu’automate et ces idées de téléautomatique.Basé sur ces idées et les analogies qu’il avait en tête, il pensait qu’il était possible de développer des robots qui puissent être aussi réalistes que les humains dans leurs réactions. Entre 1897 et 1899 Tesla décida de mettre en place un robot sous forme de bateau sans humain à bord qui pourrait être utilisé comme une torpille dans les guerres. Notamment comme celle qui opposait les états-unis à l’Espagne depuis avril 1898.http://nikolatesla12germain.weebly.com/blog/nikola-tes-whoIl en fit diverses démonstrations, notamment à JP Morgan, le fameux homme d’affaires dont la banque est liée aux problèmes des subprimes il y a quelques années, et Hammond un homme d’affaires impliquée dans la marine. Ce dernier souhaita investir dans le développement de cette technologie. Tesla continua ses travaux, en construit un exemple plus grand, et déposa un brevet fin 1898. Il envisagea aussi pour des aspects sécurité de diffuser deux signaux qui, uniquement si ils étaient présents, pouvaient activer le système (une porte logique en somme, même si il ne l’appelle pas comme ça).Il en fit la démonstration en Mai 1898 et la foule fut conquise. Malheureusement, cette invention ne fut jamais développée commercialement. Il semble qu’un certain nombre d’inventeurs aient proposé à l’époque des inventions à la marine américaine (Edison le fit aussi d’ailleurs), mais peu d’entre elles, voire quasiment aucune ne furent retenue.Ce travail sur la téléautomatique ne l’empêchait pas de continuer ses recherches sur la transmission d’énergie sans fil. Dans la foulée de ses travaux sur le courant à travers la Terre, il cherchait à voir de quelle manière il pouvait fermer, de la manière la plus efficace le circuit électrique qu’il pensait former avec son courant à la terre. Je rappelle qu’il avait vraiment une vision électricienne des choses.Ses travaux sur les tubes fluorescents où il les illuminait en faisant un vide poussé le firent arriver à la conclusion qu’il pouvait utiliser l’air raréfié de la haute atmosphère pour conduire de l’électricité.Afin de poursuivre ses recherches (et oui, tout cela coûtait de l’argent, d’autant plus qu’il avait toujours beaucoup d’idées en même temps) il s’associa au riche homme d’affaires John Jacob Astor (qui possédait notamment l’un des hôtels les plus luxueux de New York le Waldorf Astoria) qui accepta d’investir 100000 dollars dans sa société.By Published on LIFE [Public domain or Public domain], via Wikimedia CommonsTesla devait en effet avancer et mettre en application les recherches qu’ils menaient sur ces différentes sujets. En effet, pendant que Tesla développait ces idées, Marconi en Europe, dans la suite de Hertz, tentait d’utiliser les ondes EM pour envoyer des messages. Et avec succès. Entre 1898 et 1899, Marconi étendit la portée de ses instruments, notamment jusqu’à ce qu’en mars 1899 il arrive à transmettre un message à travers la Manche. Tesla commençait à sentir le vent tourner et entre le dénigrement des travaux de Marconi et des prétentions surréalistes de transmission de message de par le monde, il se lança dans la mise au point d’un système de communication sans fil à l’échelle mondiale. Et ceci se ferait au Colorado. Tesla et Colorado Springs Building at Tesla's Colorado Springs Laboratory, National Museum of American HistorySon objectif, avec l’installation qu’il fit en mai 1899 à Colorado Springs, était de s’assurer de sa capacité de transmettre des courants à travers la terre et les faire revenir dans l’atmosphère vers n’importe quel point. La construit qu’il fit réaliser fut d’ailleurs la plus grande bobine Tesla construite avec près de 15m de haut[8].Durant sa présence à Colorado Springs, Tesla semble avoir découvert pendant un orage des ondes électriques stationnaires dans la croûte terrestre. Ces ondes stationnaires[9] apparaîssent quand deux ondes de même fréquence et même amplitude en sens opposé forment des points fixes dans le temps[10].By No machine-readable author provided. LucasVB assumed (based on copyright claims). [Public domain], via Wikimedia CommonsTesla pensait que cela pouvait dire que la Terre était un conducteur de taille limitée et qu’avec ce principe il pouvait avoir un rayon d’impact bien plus grand que ce que faisait Marconi.Au cours de ces travaux Tesla pense recevoir en juillet 1899 un signal provenant de l’espace. Histoire de ne pas se ridiculiser, il tente de disqualifier toutes les hypothèses terrestres qu’il peut imaginer, mais au final, il en arrive à la conclusion que ce signale ne peut être terrestre et doit provenir de Mars, présente dans le ciel ce jour-là.Giovanni Schiaparelli [Public domain], via Wikimedia CommonsA l’époque Mars était la vedette des planètes. Entre Schiaparelli et ses canaux et Lowell qui avait annoncé qu’il y avait de la vie intelligente sur Mars, cela pouvait faire sens pour Tesla.Vous devez tous vous demander : mais qu’en était-il réellement? Des analyses ultérieures semblent plutôt aller vers l’émission de signaux par Io lors d’un passage dans un anneau de particules chargées autour de Jupiter qui se trouvait à l’époque dans la même zone du ciel que Mars. Tesla a peut-être reçu un signal n’étant en effet pas terrestre, mais il n’avait rien à voir avec Mars …Mais revenons à la tour de Tesla.. Une fois finit d’être construite, il entreprit divers tests de ses concepts. Le problème avec les expériences qu’il réalisé à Colorado Springs, c’est qu’elles se firent majoritairement sans témoin sans témoin direct autre que lui-même[11] et ceci à la différence de Marconi qui faisait toujours des démonstrations en public! En effet, les témoignages de ses assistants semblent pointer vers le fait que Tesla voulait être seul afin de réaliser les observations de sa transmission sans fil en dehors de sa tour et eux devaient opérer les machines dans la tour.Dans le film le prestige il y a d’ailleurs une scène où l’on voit les acteurs devant un terrain où il y a des ampoules qui seraient soi-disant illuminées par le système de Tesla. Malheureusement, comme dit précédemment, les prétentions de Tesla n’ont jamais eu de témoin à part lui-même...http://peswiki.com/images/am1m1mafp3u2sgf9s2kejxjkwop224k3.jpg Christopher Nolan, Le prestigePour Tesla, à partir du moment où il avait pu tester son principe a courte distance, cela devait forcément fonctionner à longue distance … En passant c’est à cette installation de Colorado Springs qu’il fit en double exposition une des photos les plus célèbres le concernant.See page for author [CC BY 4.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0)], via Wikimedia CommonsTesla aurait témoigné avoir su produire de la foudre en boule au sein de ses notes le 3 janvier 1900[12]. Malheureusement, d'après Carlson[13], il n’y a pas vraiment consensus, ne serait-ce que sur la possibilité physique qu’il soit possible d’en produire. Point que Steven Novella semble aussi avancer lors de l’épisode de son podcast sur le culte voué à Tesla dans les milieux new age[14].Toujours est-il que Tesla pensait être arrivé à l’aboutissement de ses recherches, tout du moins de l’obtention de suffisamment de preuves allant dans le sens de ses hypothèses. Pour lui la transmission d’énergie sans fil était possible, vers n’importe quel point du globe, à une vitesse quasi instantanée et sans diminution notable de puissance… On est loin de ce que la science basée sur des faits et reproduite pourrait dire aujourd’hui... Wardenclyffe Comme en 1887 avec son moteur, Tesla voulait trouver des investisseurs pour financer le développement des idées prototypées à Colorado Springs et une entreprise pour acheter son idée.Tesla continuait d’abreuver les journaux de déclarations de plus en plus fantaisistes, que ce soit dans son article plus philosophique, pour ne pas dire autre chose, sur la façon d’augmenter l’énergie de l’Humanité qu’il pu publier dans le magazine Century dont il connaissait l’un des membres influents. Où que ce soit ceux où il expliquait que la glace pouvait permettre de mieux transmettre jusqu’à Londres l’électricité produite aux Chutes du Niagara… Il expliquait aussi pouvoir transmettre des messages à l’autre bout du monde (afin d’attirer des investisseurs) et Marconi réfutait ces affirmations.C’est sur fin 1900 que Tesla pu rencontrer JP Morgan afin de lui parler de ses plans. Entre le potentiel usage que ce dernier pourrait en faire et les arguments de Tesla en terme de brevets, il semble qu’il arriva à le convaincre d’investir. Morgan conclu donc de fournir 150000 dollars à Tesla en échange de 51% des parts dans l’entreprise[15].Tesla se mis donc à travailler à partir de Novembre 1901 à la construction de sa tour qu’il érigea à LongIsland sur un site qu’il nomma Wardenclyffe.https://thevelvetrocket.com/2010/03/17/nikola-teslas-wardenclyffe-tower-and-laboratory/Mais la construction ne se passa pas comme prévu. Tesla avait vu trop grand.En effet, pour calculer la puissance de sa tour, il se basa sur les expériences qu’il avait réalisé à Colorado Springs. Et d’après celles-ci il se dit qu’il devait exploiter des ondes stationnaires autour de la Terre à une fréquence proche de 6Hz. Pourquoi est-ce que je vous parle de cela vous allez me dire ?En fait en 1950 un certain Schumann théorisa l’existence d’une fréquence de résonance pour des ondes qui se propageraient entre la haute atmosphère et le sol. En 1960 ces ondes furent observées expérimentalement[16] et on se mit donc à parler de résonance de Schumann. Comme ces ondes ont une fréquence autour de 7-8 Hz certains n’hésitent pas à dire que Tesla avait découvert se phénomène bien avant Schumann...Mais Tesla n’avait pas estimé correctement les coûts induits par une tour à la taille qu’il avait estimé. Ainsi, entre les problèmes d’argent générés par la construction, les équipements nécessaires, les dizaines voire centaines de salariés, où ses relations très compliquées avec Morgan (il y a des lettres que présente Seifer qui sont assez hallucinantes de la part de Tesla), il eu du mal à avancer.Marconi, de son côté, développait son idée de pouvoir transmettre des signaux par delà l’Atlantique. Entre le dépôt de brevets et la construction d’antennes géantes, il arriva à le faire effectivement en décembre 1901 entre le Newfoundland au Canada et l’Angleterre.L’histoire semble avoir cependant effacé une partie du scepticisme de l’époque sur la réalité du message que seul Marconi et son assistant auraient entendu. En effet, peu de personne pensait que les ondes pouvait effectivement voyager entre les deux points à cause de la rotondité de la Terre[17]. Mais la presse et les experts voulaient y croire. D’autant plus que Tesla expliquait à tout va que cela était possible. C’est une seconde démonstration, publique celle-ci, et réalisée sur un bateau qui voyageait d’Angleterre jusqu’en Amérique, qui finit de convaincre de la réalisation de Marconi. On peut dire que d’une certaine manière, toutes les déclarations fantasques de Tesla ont peut être diminué le scepticisme de rigueur qui aurait pu prévaloir lors de la première annonce de son rival Marconi.Tesla, de son côté, était cruellement à court d’argent et il ne cessait d’envoyer des lettres toujours plus pressantes à Morgan pour qu’il continue d’investir. Mais celui-ci décida de mettre un terme à ses échanges avec Tesla en 1893[18]. Malheureusement pour Tesla, ses déclarations toujours plus fracassantes dans la presse ainsi que le fait qu’il ait donné 51% de son entreprise à Morgan ont fait fuir tout les potentiels investisseurs et le plongèrent dans une crise financière profonde. Ces échecs le firent tomber en dépression en 1906 et il dut abandonner ses travaux à Wardenclyffe. En fait il abandonna même à ce moment-là, et pour le reste de sa vie, ses travaux sur la transmission d’énergie sans fil. Les turbines Tesla En récupérant de son nervous breakdown, il chercha à se tourner vers le développement de composants mécaniques et afin de pouvoir satisfaire sa volonté de voler qu’il avait depuis enfant, il voulu développer un nouveau type de turbine. L’idée principe de sa turbine était que la viscosité de l’air (la résistance au déplacement d’un fluide grosso modo) pouvait être utilisée pour faire tourner des disques attaché à l’axe[19]. Par comparaison, dans une turbine classique, ce sont les pales qui sont mises en mouvement par le passage du fluide qui vient les pousser.http://fr.slideshare.net/sougandhs02/a-seminar-on-tesla-turbinesUne fois un prototype mis au moins à travers une nouvelles société, il en fit démonstration en 1911-1912, mais ce fut, encore, un échec cuisant. Malgré un faible investissement du fils de JP Morgan en 1913, personne ne vit d’intérêt dans un système qui était de plus incapable de supporter de fortes charges. Alors c’est vrai qu’il y a une ou deux sociétés qui les ont commercialiser, mais cela reste très loin d’une usage à l’échelle industriel ... Nobel, déchéance et la fin de Tesla En dehors du fait que Marconi reçu en 1909 le prix nobel en reconnaissance de ses travaux en lien avec la télégraphie sans fil, c’est une autre affaire étrange qui impliqua Tesla, Edison, et le comité Nobel.Le New York Times prétendit en effet que Tesla et Edison devaient recevoir le prix Nobel en 1909. Mais il s’avéra que ce ne fut pas le cas et il fut décerné aux père et fils Bragg pour l’analyse de la structure des cristaux grâce aux rayons X[20]. Des histoires courent selon lesquelles Tesla et Edison l’auraient refusé car ils ne voulaient pas le recevoir avec l’autre … Mais rien ne semble appuyer cette thèse.En 1916 Tesla reçu la Médaille d’honneur de l’AIEE. Au départ il ne souhaitait pas la recevoir car cette médaille est aussi appelée Médaille Edison, mais le lobbying du président de l’AIEE fit son effet et Tesla accepta de la recevoir. L’histoire notera que peu de temps avant de faire son discours, il disparût de la salle de réception et du bâtiment au grand desarroi des organisateurs. Après quelques recherches aux alentours il ne fut retrouvé que plusieurs minutes plus tard dans un parc non loin de là, entouré de pigeons ….A la même époque Tesla se montrât très suspicieux, pour ne pas dire plus, concernant la théorie de la RG qu’Einstein avait théorisé. Il alla même, quelques années plus tard expliquer qu’Einstein se trompait avec sa notion de courbure de l’espace-temps et que selon lui c’était complètement impossible ...Dans les années qui suivirent, un certain nombre de procès ont été intentés contre Marconi, ou par celui-ci dans le cadre des brevets sur les bases de la radio. Ce n’est pas avant 1935 que la paternité de Tesla fut reconnue par les tribunaux américains. Ne vous méprenez pas. Marconi avait quand même reconnu qu’il utilisait des inventions de Tesla et certes, les brevets de base étaient au nom de ce dernier, mais c’est surtout Marconi et des hommes comme Fessenden et DeForest qui en firent la promotion et le développement économique. Il faut savoir que la société créée par Marconi pour vendre des radios aux U.S.A est devenu RCA par la suite. Société que vous connaissez peut-être de nom..L’histoire de Wardenclyffe se finit effectivement en 1917 quand la tour fut détruite et en 1921 quand la propriété du terrain fut transmise au propriétaire du Waldorf-Astoria en paiement des notes d’hôtel jamais réglées par Tesla.Toutes ces déconvenues et ses déboires firent de Tesla un reclus. Il ne s’arrêta jamais vraiment de travailler et en 1931, pour son 75eme anniversaire, une fête se tint à laquelle des témoignages de grands noms de la science furent lus(on peut noter Einstein, Lodge, Millikan et d’autres). Chacune des années suivantes, Tesla organisa un évènement du même type. Il s’agissait pour lui à chaque fois d’une occasion pour annoncer de nouvelles découvertes … En 1931 un moteur fonctionnant aux rayons cosmique. En 1934 son fameux rayon de la mort … Il prétendait détruire 10000 avions en vol à plus de 250 miles de distance … Un document semble validé qu’il ait réfléchi à la question, mais toutes les analyses suivantes et notamment celle d’un certain Trumpp (c’est pas le même cherchez pas!) en 1943, tendent à dire que ce système n’était pas à la hauteur des prétentions de Tesla.Tesla semble même avoir donné, en compensation d’une note de 400 dollars, une boîte contenant soi-disant un modèle de son arme (il estimait sa valeur à 10000 dollars), au gérant de l’hôtel où il résidait. Tout en précisant bien qu’il ne devait pas ouvrir la boîte sous peine d’explosion. A postériori il s’avéra que Tesla s’était moqué d’eux et que la boîte ne contenait rien d’autres que des pièces détachées utilisées pour la radio.Certaines déclarations de Tesla tendent à corroborer le fait qu’il fut en contact avec divers gouvernements concernant cette arme jusqu’en 1940 : soviétiques, américains ou anglais notamment, mais rien n’atteste qu’un tel rayon ait été mis au point par quiconque.Nikola Tesla with King Peter of Yugoslavia in Hotel New Yorker on July 15, 1942. Tesla's nephew, Sava Kosanovic, is third from the left. Crédit : http://www.teslasociety.com/tesla_reception.htmA partir de 1942 Tesla passait beaucoup de son temps dans son lit. Entre une diète quasi exclusivement à base de lait et un accident en 1943, sa mémoire semblait flancher complètement. Il voulut même faire envoyer de l’argent à Marc Twain, mort 25 ans plus tôt…Il mourut finalement le 7 janvier 1943 d’une attaque cardiaque. Des témoignages parvinrent de tout les coins du monde pour acclamer son inventivité et le rôle qu’il joua dans l’établissement du courant alternatif dans le monde.Après sa mort ses papiers et une bonne partie de ses notes furent prises par le gouvernement américain (pour les étudier afin de voir si ses prétentions d’arme de fin du monde ou autre étaient vraies) avant d’être restitués à sa famille et de se retrouver dans un musée établi en son honneur dans la ville de Belgrade. Tesla et les mythes Avant de conclure, je voudrais prendre un peu de temps pour parler des mythes qui peuvent exister autour du personnages. Il existe un grand nombre d’histoires étranges ou d’inventions qui sont associées à Tesla. Afin d’essayer d’en débunker quelques unes, j’ai demandé aux membres des groupes facebook “Station des sciences” et “Zététique” les mythes dont ils avaient pu entendre parler à son propos?”En voici quelques uns. Tesla fut un anarchiste à un moment de sa vie. Seifer rapporte dans sa biographie qu’il fut en contact avec des personnes peu recommandables proches du régime nazi après que sa tour de Wardenclyffe fut tombée.Une autre chose qui pourrait tendre à penser qu’il était anarchiste était le fait qu’il voulait fournir gratuitement de l’énergie à tout le monde durant la deuxième partie de sa vie. Ce genre d’annonce pouvait être plutôt mal vues par les magnats de l’industrie du cuivre (utilisé pour la transmission d’électricité) ou de l’énergie.Mais à priori Tesla n’était pas un anarchiste dans le sens classique du terme. Au contraire, il semble qu’il chercha à s’introduire dans le milieu de la haute société New-Yorkaise et sur la fin de sa vie il tentât de travailler avec divers gouvernements ... L’énergie libre Il y a énormément de choses racontées autour de Tesla et l’énergie libre. Qu’il pourrait extraire de l’énergie de l’ionosphère. On retrouve dans l’auto-biographie de Tesla et dans la bio écrite par Carlson, et dans diverses illustrations qu’il a pu publier dans des journaux, l’idée que Tesla voyait plutôt la Terre comme un conducteur chargé dont il était possible d’extraire de l’énergie. Et non pas de l’atmosphère. Il semble que Tesla voyait la haute atmosphère comme un conducteur à travers lequel il pouvait “fermer un circuit qui serait formé aussi de la terre, d’un dispositif d’émission et d’un dispositif de réception. Il avait une vision très “électricienne” de la transmission d’énergie. Une voiture qui aurait fonctionné à l’énergie libre. Apparemment l’histoire serait plutôt celle d’une voiture de chez Pierce/Arrow qui aurait fonctionné à l’énergie des rayons cosmiques et qu’aurait raconté un faux neveu de Tesla[21]. Toutjours est-il que le vrai neveu de Tesla se serait exprimé à propos de cette histoire de voiture et aurait expliqué que c’était totalement faux[22]. Et si vous souhaitez en savoir un peu plus sur cette histoire, Dr Goulu en parle dans un billet : http://www.drgoulu.com/2012/08/19/nikola-tesla-genie-mais-connu/ [23] Une chose qui peut aussi être noté c’est que Tesla parlait effectivement d’énergie gratuite. Il semble que tout les conspirationnistes aient surtout fait l’amalgame classique du terme free en anglais. Pour Tesla il s’agissait à priori de free comme “gratuit”. Selon Seifer c’est d’ailleurs une des raisons pour lesquelles les investisseurs de Tesla ne le suivirent pas sur la voie de la Transmission sans fil[24].La soucoupe volante de Tesla Certains sites conspirationnistes expliquent qu’il aurait déposé un brevet pour une soucoupe volante et que la NSA l’aurait volé : http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fyournewswire.com%2Funcovered-teslas-patent-for-worlds-1st-flying-saucer%2F&h=dAQFc_WLeSauf que comme dit en commentaires de ce fameux billet, entre les anacronismes sur l’utilisation du mot flying saucer, l’usage du symbole copyright ou juste qu’aucune source n’existe pour justifier de l’éventuel dépôt d’un brevet, c’est du délire[25]. Le film le prestige Le film “Le Prestige” de Christopher Nolan sorti en 2006 avec Christian Bale et Hugh Jackman fut aussi l’occasion de découvrir une histoire à propos de Tesla : l’invention de la téléportation. Bon on est ok, c’est du délire. Aucun des livres que j’ai pu lire n’ont avancé une quelconque idée de ce genre… Tesla et les pigeons Un certain nombre de personnes s’interroge sur cette histoire de pigeon et Tesla. Et bien il semble que ce soit relativement vrai. Tout du moins suffisamment établi pour que ce soit une constante dans toutes les bibliographies que j’ai lu le concernant.A la fin de sa vie il était reclus et il devait trouver de la compagnie auprès des pigeons. Il semblait maintenir chez lui une quantité importante de graines pour les pigeons et il raconte lui-même qu’il aurait tissé une relation plus forte notamment avec l’un d’entre eux. Il dit d’ailleurs que cette relation aurait été aussi forte que celle entre un homme et une femme[26]… Il raconte même que le jour où le pigeon allait mourir il serait venu voir Tesla et deux rayons lumineux seraient sorti de ses yeux[27] … Tesla et le radar Plusieurs ouvrage comme ceux de Cheney ou de Cawthorne tendent à colporter l’idée que Tesla aurait inventé le radar parce qu’en 1917 il aurait décrit un système basé sur des ondes radios qui se réfléchiraient sur des sous-marins et qu’il pourrait, une fois revenues, les afficher sur un écran fluo. Outre que le radar ne fonctionne pas vraiment comme ça et que pour les sous-marins on utilisera plutôt un sonar, il semble que les principes de bases du radar et les premières mises en oeuvre sont au moins plus anciennes de 10 ans. Pour affirmer sa paternité sur le radar, ils mentionnent aussi le fait que Girardeau, un français, se serait inspiré des dires de Tesla pour mettre au point le radar en 1935. Mais des recherches sur le sujet ont été entreprises entre les années 20 et 40 en Angleterre, aux Etats-Unis ou en France. Tesla n’est donc selon moi pas l’inventeur du radar. D’autant plus qu’il n’a pas déposé de brevet sur la question ni construit de système qui aurait peut-être pu justifier cette affirmation... L’invention du courant alternatif Dans le précédent épisode j’ai pu expliqué ce qu’il en était. Le fameux rayon de la mort de Tesla Le sujet a été abordé pendant le dossier. Les communications interplanétaires et Mars Le sujet a été abordé pendant le dossier. Prédiction des ondes de schumann Le sujet a été abordé pendant le dossier. La fameuse page de The Oatmeal sur Tesla La personne derrière The Oatmeal publia il y a quelque temps une illustration dans un ton certes humoristique, mais très “Tesla” groupie. Je ne suis pas forcément en accord avec tout ce qui est dit, d’autant plus que cela semble principalement basé sur la bio de Cheney (qui est moins bien que celle de Calrson selon moi). Il y eu une affaire autour de cette page. En effet, un journaliste de Forbes, fit un article à propos de cette page pour, d’une certaine manière contrebalancer la vision donnée de Tesla par the Oatmeal. Mais cela ne s’arrêta pas là. L’auteur de la page fit une réponse à Forbes en argumentant certaines de ses affirmations avec le même ton humoristique …De mon point de vue, chacun possède une partie de la vérité, mais chacun souhaite pousser les choses dans un sens ou dans l’autre … Ce qui amène en fait à la problématique des bio et autobio ... La problématique des biographies et autobiographies Vous allez me dire pourquoi lire autant de bouquins sur Tesla quand une seule bio suffirait ? Le truc c’est que concernant Tesla, il y a trop de disparité entre les auteurs pour ne se limiter qu’à un seul. Sans parler des histoires les plus délirantes que l’on retrouve un peu partout sur internet et qui sont trop souvent reprises sans réelle vérification.John O’Neill fut la seconde personne a rédiger une biographie de Tesla en 1943 mais le premier après sa mort. Il était un grand admirateur et le connu de son vivant. On pourrait penser qu’il serait possible pour lui d’avoir des informations de première main pour son livre. Mais se basant principalement sur ce que Tesla pouvait lui raconter, le livre est extrêmement partial et l’auteur cherche plus à glorifier l’inventeur (il parle quand même de Superman à son propos tout au long de son livre) qu’à chercher à établir la vérité.Avant la sortie de la bio de Carlson, la biola plus en vogue était celle de Margaret Cheney. Il me semble qu’elle était plus dans l’esprit groupie de Tesla et donc un tantinet impartiale. Ce qui m’a mis mal à l’aise c’est sa propention à vouloir voir dans certaines des inventions de Tesla les prémices d’inventions intervenues plus tard et le créditer de leurs inventions. Parfois même à tort comme pour le radar ou les rayons X.Celle qui faisait référence avance celle de Cheney était celle de Seifer. Celle-ci avait l’avantage d’être riche de témoignages issus de sa correspondance avec ses contemporains comme J.P. Morgan, les Johnson ou d’autres. Mais sur les aspects techniques elle est plutôt approximative et l’auteur raconte même des choses carrément fausses sur son site concernant l’opposition Einstein/Tesla.Et c’est vraiment là où celle de Carlson est très intéressante car elle est techniquement précise et historiquement très sourcée. L’auteur étant un académique de l’histoire des sciences et de l’innovation technique, il dispose des connaissances nécessaires à la compréhension du contexte et à l’analyse des prétentions techniques des inventions et expériences de Tesla.Tout cela pour dire, si vous voulez vous renseigner sur une sujet, lisez plusieurs sources différentes ! Et même si possibles des sources contradictoires ! Pour avoir lu deux livres sur Edison, dont un n’est pas non plus pro Edison, on découvre le peu d’importance de Tesla pour celui-ci. Il doit être cité une seule fois en tout ! Conclusion NIkola Tesla est un homme dont la vie fut inscrite dans une histoire de l’industrie de l’électricité au tournant du XIX et du XX siècle. Il participa à sa construction, mais finalement l’histoire retient relativement peu de son passage et de ses inventions. Cela n’enlève pourtant rien à sa découverte du champ magnétique tournant et la conséquence que fut le principe du moteur AC. Nikola était un showman, et un inventeur qui poursuivit peut-être trop des idées non établiées en se basant sur des analogies comme pour la transmission sans fil.J’espère qu’à travers ce dossier, vous aurez découvert une version moins romantique et fantasmée de Nikola Tesla et que cela vous aura donné des informations pour réfuter certain des mythes qui existent à son propos.

Ben The Oatmeal défend son bout de gras et parfois est un peu trop en mode groupie (et tord un chouilla les choses) et Alex Knapp de Forbes est un peu trop “c’est pareil Edison et Tesla”.

Ok, ils en débunkent certains (l’invention de l’AC par Tesla, par exemple), mais un certain nombre de choses est avancé sans citer de source spécifiquement par information, et vu la passion de certains sur la question on est en droit de se poser la question de la partialité d’un debunkage de soi-disant mythes à propos de Tesla sur une page créée par un centre au nom d’Edison) http://www.lesnumeriques.com/vie-du-net/brevet-google-veut-pouvoir-dechirer-ecrans-n51949.html Les brevets qui seraient censés démontrer que Tesla avait inventé les portes logiques ET et OU : Method of Signaling : http://www.rastko.rs/cms/files/books/46c5e785e19f9.pdf System of Signaling : http://www.freepatentsonline.com/0725605.pdf La page wikipedia sur les ondes stationnaires : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onde_stationnaire La page du podcast de Steven Novella en lien avec l’épisode qu’il a fait sur Tesla : https://skeptoid.com/episodes/4345 Le billet du Dr Goulu à propos de Tesla : http://www.drgoulu.com/2012/08/19/nikola-tesla-genie-mais-connu/ La page wikipédia sur son rayon de la mort ou Teleforce : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teleforce La page wikipédia sur les résonnances de Schumann : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schumann_resonances La page wikipédia à propos de Marconi : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guglielmo_Marconi La page wikipédia sur William Lawrence Bragg : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Lawrence_Bragg [1] Par la suite Tesla ne chercha pas vraiment à développer cette invention (comme pour beaucoup d’autres d’ailleurs) qui semblait pourtant demandé par la médecine de l’époque. [2] Il existe cependant des raisons de douter de l’ampleur des vibrations car d’autres expériences du même type ont été réalisées depuis sans des phénomènes approchant ce que Tesla décrit.[3] Pour lui, le fait qu’elles se propagent dans toutes les directions les rendait vraiment inutilisable et cela le renforça dans l’idée de se concentrer sur la transmission d’énergie via la terre. Il ne savait pas qu’elle pouvaient se réfléchir sur l’ionosphère comme ce fut découvert en 1924 sur une couche de particules chargées nommée couche de Kennelly-Heaviside.[4] Il se rapproche de TC Martin qui l’aida à mettre en place certaines conférences et lui permis de publier un livre sur ses inventions. Martin le mis ensuite en relation avec les Johnsons.[5] Après sa participation au succès des chutes du niagara et sa présence massive dans les jounaux, Tesla reçu de nombreux prix et titres honorifiques en 1893 et 1894 : Médaille Cresson, doctorat honorifique de Colombia ou de Yale, entre autres …[6] De plus, Tesla n’ayant plus la clairvoyance de Peck avec lui, passait trop de temps à peaufiner ses inventions et à faire de la publicité et un peu moins à chercher effectivement à trouver preneur …[7] Cette dernière partie est supputée par Carlson dans son livre.[8] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Experimental_Station[9] https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onde_stationnaire[10] Cette notion existe en physique et c’est notamment parce qu’elles peuvent avoir un fort taux de pénétration dans l’océan qu’elles sont utilisées entre la terre, l’ionosphère et les sous-marins pour communiquer.[11] C’est d’ailleurs l’un de leurs points marquants: il semble que les prétentions faites par O’Neill dans sa biographie de Tesla à propos de 200 lampes allumées à plus de 26 miles, n’aient en fait aucune base car aucun témoin, ni aucune note ne sont là pour supporter cette affirmation[12] http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/archivos_pdf/tesla-colorado-JAN.pdf[13] Carlson, p 299 et Dunning : https://skeptoid.com/episodes/4345[14] https://skeptoid.com/episodes/4345[15] Selon Carlson l’implication de Morgan était plus d’ordre philantropique dans la mesure où celui-ci investissait clairement plus dans des industries pour les consolider que dans des start-ups.[16] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schumann_resonances[17] même si la couche de Kennelly-Heaviside pouvait effectivement réfléchir les ondes[18] Pour certains les plan farfelus de Tesla de transmettre de messages et de l’énergie gratuitement étaient clairement contre les intérêt économiques de Morgan. Pour d’autres Morgan ne voyait pas de business plan viable dans la volonté de Tesla de fournir de l’énergie gratuitement. Carlson de son côté explique que Morgan ne souhaitait pas investir dans une industrie encore très instable où une bulle spéculative semblait se développer.[19] Pas comme celles que l’on utilise aujourd’hui encore avec des pales.[20] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Lawrence_Bragg[21] On peut retrouver des infos sur la page wikipédia associée. Nikola Tesla avait en effet des idées sur les rayons cosmiques et même si Margaret Cheney essaye de réhabiliter ce que disait Tesla à leur propos, il semblait être à côté de ses pompes…[22] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_Tesla_electric_car_hoax#cite_ref-3[23] Par contre, je ne suis pas forcément d’accord avec deux trois trucs dont parle Goulu, mais ça nous en avons discuté ensemble déjà :)[24] Si il y arrivait réellement, ils auraient investi dans quelque chose qui aurait arrêté certains de leurs autres investissement, notamment dans les mines de Cuivre... Comme dit avant, il avait en tête de pouvoir distribuer gratuitement de l’énergie de part le monde ...[25] Si l’on cherche des informations sur cette histoire de soucoupe volante de Tesla, on tombe sur tout une liste de sites avec du charabia qui vont jusqu’à citer des sites comme Occult Ether Physics(et un certain Willian R. Lyne http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bibliotecapleyades.net%2Ftesla%2Foccultether%2Foccultether03.htm%23CHAPTER%2520V&h=MAQEyRcv9) ou qui font références aux théories de Tesla sur la gravité qui n’étaient absolument pas fondées et en total désaccord avec les expériences ou avec ce qu’Einstein avait pu expliquer.
